“Innovation” has become a powerful catalyst for change in healthcare and a rallying point for industry’s diverse stakeholders. But “disruption” can also be a trap when the disruptors are disillusioned about what it takes to exert real change. Mandira Singh, Director of More Disruption Please at athenahealth, the firm’s one-year-old accelerator program, will speak about the opportunities and pitfalls of the new wave of hackathons on healthcare, and learnings from the last five MDP Hackathons.
