Have you read "the innovators prescription " by Clayton Christensen.
— Dr Chris Mimnagh (@ChrisMimnagh) May 17, 2019
Has a great breakdown of which bits of health can go off the mainframe first.
Also: " The Machine That Changed The World" -- evidence-based explanation of @ToyotaMotorCorp Production System, essential learning about Lean. Am part-way through reading and already finding it to be a must-read for #Lean & #Agile (meaning not just software dev)

Before Disrupting Healthcare - Pallav Sharda

Learn to Think in Systems- Albert Rutherford
Not that I agree 100% with either. But the broad perspectives are important.
I’d suggest Vaugh Vernon for Ddd Lots of lessons were learned whilst industry followed Evans, V.V gives you those, more solid examples and relevant practices too.

I found Getting to Yes pretty useful when it comes to implementation.
