Stay Left, Shift Left-10X: The New Proactive Digital Paradigm for Health Transformation (Mission10X - Digital Health)

In the last two centuries we have made remarkable collective progress in more than doubling life expectancy, but now health systems face unprecedented challenges with rising costs, rising demands and expectations and aging populations. This book offers vision, hope and evidence for transforming global health systems using a new paradigm based the use of digital and data tools applied to proactive health and healthcare improvement. The new paradigm is called Stay Left, Shift Left-10X (SL2-10X) and the paradigm focusses on first keeping people well and having the home as the care location of choice. With its roots in software engineering and the introduction of the Shift Left Paradigm at Intel, the book shares key challenges or gaps and then proposes ten Copernican shifts to enable a dramatic metamorphosis of our health systems resulting in better efficiency, effectiveness, equity and experience. The book also sets an aspiration and early empirical evidence for a Moore's Law for Health, sometimes called "Curley's Law" whereby Digital and Data interventions drive 10-fold or 10X improvements across the quintuple aim of health, better care, lower cost/higher value, improved patient experience/quality of life, improved clinician experience and productivity and finally improved sustainability. The new Sl2-10X paradigm primarily takes a problem dissolution approach, as advocated by Russ Ackoff, which by proactive wellness management and early disease detection and remediation significantly bends both the demand and cost curves which are making current healthcare systems unsustainable. In health, as in life perhaps the most valuable and least replaceable resource is time and this new SL2-10X paradigm can have a dramatic impact on time by enabling time warping innovations such as 10X earlier diagnosis and 10X faster interventions while also creating the opportunity to extend years of healthy living through changing health, behaviours, nutrition and other determinants of health. Readers can learn about the new SL2-10X paradigm and associated policy and practice and read dozens of examples and case studies from leaders around the world. The book is a beacon of hope for an increasingly stressed global health system and creates the opportunity for individuals to live longer healthier lives through the combination of digital technologies and a proactive health mindset.
