Some of the ideas are downright scary – “reuse of single purpose surgical supplies.” It’s difficult to pinpoint all the differences between India and US in a complex topic as health care, but two immediate factors come to mind. First, there are entrenched reasons for the cost differences between the US and the rest of the world. For one, the US has an extremely litigious penchant towards health care providers, and a daunting level of checks and balances such as FDA clearance (and inspections) over pharmaceuticals and medical devices. One reason why the $1 voice prosthesis in India costs $700 in the US. Related to this, the US is one of the few markets where medical procedures and medication charges are not capped by the government; most nations even the most democratic and developed ones run health care as a utility. As a result, the US being a high-margin market subsidizes the high cost to develop “innovations” for the rest of the world. Second, the US medical networks have the “hub-and-spoke” model the authors recommend – it’s just isolated within a network. To gain the scale efficiencies in the book, individual networks would need to build a consortium to pool resources. Even if the networks are willing to work together, the efficiencies will still be difficult to gain based on the demographic and geographic profile of the US. Yes, the authors present us with 4 working cases in the Americas, but these institutions serve outliers of the general US population (e.g., Cayman Islands), and cannot be a foundation for the current health care needs of Americans. “Reverse innovation” may be a great concept in commodity industries, but for US health care, this book should be stored at the unreachable, top of the bookshelf [of ambulance chasing attorneys]. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Many have tried to address the skyrocketing costs of American ... *by C***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2018* Many have tried to address the skyrocketing costs of American healthcare. Many have written about the astonishing results by hospitals in India such as Narayana Hrudalaya in Bangalore and Aravind EyeCare in Chennai. But Govindarajann and Ramamurti draw a straight line from one to the other and suggest some radical solutions for American healthcare from unexpected places. They back their hypothesis with real world American examples such as Ascension, the largest Catholic hospital system in the world, Iora Health serving Boston, Nevada and New York and the U Miss hospital center deep in the American south. The book should be required reading for any healthcare executive in government, in the corporate world and in the non profit arena. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reverse Innovation, an incomplete solution *by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2018* The authors highlight lessons from healthcare innovators in India and how the lessons from India can be applied to US health care challenges. They highlight key issues of cost, access, quality and how these innovators have tackled these challenges. Other challenges in American health care such as healthcare disparities between social and ethnic groups are largely unaddressed , perhaps because these challenges also persist in India. I visited one of these hospitals during my executive MBA at Oxford university and found there care models quite impressive. The book is well researched and I commend the authors for a job well done. I recommend the book to CFOs, physician executives and administrators. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/123097033-reverse-innovation-in-health-care-how-to-make-value-based](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/123097033-reverse-innovation-in-health-care-how-to-make-value-based) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-07-07*
