The Inceptary

We come together, virtually, every two months to explore our Healthcare challenges by posing and discussing provocative questions and hypotheses in an effort to :

• Address solutions at a higher, cross-silo level
• Identify feasible, proofs of benefit under the radar, to prove disruptive value – and to learn

Inceptary is a 501(c)(3) non-profit public benefit corporation whose mission is to improve health, wellbeing and healthcare practice by leveraging digital transformation, operational and organizational innovation, and education.

What We Believe

Healthcare in the US, and in most countries – is in crisis. Per capita spending in the US is out of control, spending growth in other countries is unsustainable. Meanwhile, patients and their health outcomes seem lost in the discussion.

The solution will not come from politicians and policymakers. Current players are entrenched in status quo preservation, or act primarily to gain profitable self-advantage.

We have a bias that data, technology, and social, common-sense intelligence have seminal roles in brining transformational change to healthcare.

Diverse, apolitical, thoughtful people have experiences and ideas to be shared, debated and elaborated and can in many cases, be translated into concrete actions.

Our Goals :

Research

• Data and research initialize our discussions through provocative questions - and later support resulting innovative ideas for socialization and proof of benefit

Diverse Engagement

• Collaborative discussions center on Inceptary members’ chosen provocative topics to gain insight and leverage diversity of thought, process and experience.

Transformative Concept

• Dialectic discourse among members from multiple perspectives generates sparks of new ideas, occasionally igniting an alignment on a new approach and value.

White Paper

• Refinement of the transformative concept by socializing with interested and concerned stakeholders in healthcare and beyond, resulting in a white paper that can be leveraged by all Inceptary members

Action Goals:

Proof of Concept

• Interested members can come together for specific transformative ideas and create proofs of benefit with low cost, low risk, short-timeframe efforts to test / prove the key values of the concept, funded with foundation and corporate charitable contributions and government grants

The Inception

• Metrics and value from proofs of benefits are entered into the national healthcare conversation through publishing, interviews and engaging key leaders
