Visionary Leaders: The Aspen Institute Health Innovators Fellowship
Setup
Fellows in the inaugural class of the Aspen Institute's Health Innovators Fellowship — visionary leaders from diverse corners of the American health care ecosystem — are challenging accepted orthodoxy. In four provocative talks, these experts say what few others will about how health care works — and doesn’t work — in the United States, and share their most creative ideas for new approaches. In a highly interactive format, audience members can explore the speakers’ assumptions and solutions, and engage in a meaningful exchange of ideas.
