HCA 514 - Healthcare & Disruptive Tech

Credits: 3

In 1995, Harvard Business Professor Clayton Christensen coined the term “disruptive innovation” while studying how and why certain innovations transform industries. Considered in early 2000 to be convoluted, expensive, and dissatisfying to consumers, disruptive technology is gradually changing the face of healthcare as we know it. Innovation is at the forefront of the challenges facing healthcare leaders and leaders need to be continually evaluating emerging technologies in light of their impact on consumers and on the efficiency and effectiveness of healthcare operations.
