Unhealthcare: A Manifesto for Health Assurance
In UnHealthcare, Silicon Valley entrepreneur and investor Hemant Taneja and Jefferson Health CEO Stephen Klasko, along with writer Kevin Maney, make a provocative case for a new data-driven, cloud-based category of healthcare called “health assurance.” The authors show how health assurance can be built using today’s technology, how it will help us all stay healthier at less cost, and how data from health assurance services can help individuals and officials contain and manage deadly virus outbreaks such as Covid-19. More than just a thesis, UnHealthcare is a guide to how entrepreneurs, healthcare professionals, and policymakers can bring health assurance to the mainstream and finally develop a solution to America’s healthcare debacle.

Patient No Longer: Why Healthcare Must Deliver the Care Experience That Consumers Want and Expect
“The coronavirus pandemic has validated the principles of this book—that we need healthcare with no address, helping people where they are and when they need it,” writes Dr. Stephen K. Klasko in Patient No Longer: Why Healthcare Must Deliver the Care Experience That Consumers Want and Expect. “Telehealth worked. Providing guidance to families worked. Listening worked. Even under our greatest threat since World War II, the principles of using digital medicine to get care out to people turned out to be critical.”
Dr. Klasko and Ryan Donohue explore this evolving delivery model in a fascinating look at the history of patient-centric care and the rise of the healthcare consumer as a powerful new voice. In addition to the compelling reasons why consumer-centric care is so crucial, the authors share how leaders can work to build health systems focused on it.

Bless This Mess: A Picture Story of Healthcare in America
In 2035 an amazing thing happens – the USA is elected to the Intergalactic
Council, the collection of cool healthcare systems from across the universe. How did that happen, when in 2018 the healthcare delivery system of the United States was the opposite of cool – inefficient, fragmented, unfriendly and inequitable? Test
In his third book, Stephen Klasko sketches the “mess” of healthcare in America, and tours the galaxy to find planets where different decisions led to radically different outcomes. With illustrator Chrissie Bonner, Klasko asks what will be obvious in the future and challenges us to do those things now.
Dr. Klasko is the President and CEO of Thomas Jefferson University and Jefferson Health and is known as a national advocate for transformation in healthcare.
“Bless This Mess: A Picture Story of Healthcare in America” is published by Jefferson University Press with lulu.com, where the book is immediately available.
