Feelin’ Alright: Transforming Healthcare through Consumer Empowerment

Feelin’ Alright, a groundbreaking book by Dr. Stephen K. Klasko, leverages the emotional power of song lyrics to inspire healthcare executives to envision and build a more accessible, high-quality, and equitable healthcare system. Using music as a metaphor, Dr. Klasko encourages readers to examine what is problematic in the existing healthcare model and to take tangible steps toward a more consumer-centered healthcare experience.

Dr. Klasko, a seasoned healthcare professional with extensive experience as a physician, health system CEO, university president, and dean, shares his insights and experiences in Feelin’ Alright. He now bridges the gap between academic health systems and digital health innovators and entrepreneurs, providing a multifaceted perspective on the challenges and opportunities in healthcare transformation.

Each chapter in Feelin’ Alright is anchored with a song that reflects the central themes explored. Some of the key topics include:

1. Why consumers are starting to rebel against traditional healthcare
2. How technology can be used to transform healthcare through consumer empowerment
3. How medical education must evolve to prepare physicians for paradigm shifts
4. What radical changes are needed to decrease health inequity

Infused with the passion inherent in music, Feelin’ Alright will motivate healthcare executives to take the lead in building a better healthcare system. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in healthcare reform and consumer-centered healthcare.
