An Iron Throne and Infinity Stones – What Pop Culture Can Teach Healthcare

AvengersFrom a purely business perspective, there is perhaps no greater aspiration than to “go viral” and be adopted into popular culture. When it happens, things move beyond their tactile descriptions to connect us and keep us coming back for more.

In 2011, the same relative period that MCU and Game of Thrones began, the U.S. healthcare system launched an effort to transform itself, beginning with massive investments in Health IT infrastructure. Both public and private stakeholders poured billions of dollars into reimagining the value proposition for healthcare.

These investments have resulted in some impressive accomplishments. Nevertheless, challenges persist in realizing the vision of a fully transformed healthcare ecosystem.
