10. The healthcare system is impersonal

Jones and Fox , 2009, Pew Research Center
Agency for Healthcare Quality & Research Statistical Brief #109 2008
Deloitte, 2011 U.S. and Global Survey of Health Care Consumers
Adverse drug
reactions cause
1.9 million
hospitalizations
each year
Most consumers do
not understand how
the healthcare
system works
70% of
consumers are
not satisfied with
levels of patient-
centered care
Most
physicians
spend less than
20 minutes with
their patients
Patients get more
information from
the internet than
their physician
11. As consumers, we need to
be outraged by the lack of
personalization in the system,
and we need to strive to
transform healthcare.

problems makes mass customization challenging
‣ Misalignment of incentives leads to
disempowerment of consumer
‣ Providers and healthcare organizations may see
consumers as adversaries rather than partners
‣Doctors remain important resources for consumers -
products need to leverage this relationship
The foundation of good health is a trusted
relationship between patient and physician.
