“The ability to combine experience and industry wisdom with a willingness to learn and change makes the difference between an organization that is on the leading edge and one that is not. Digital offers unique and valuable insights that will help technologists promote and support innovation and transform processes and cultures.”
“The future of healthcare is now, as response to COVID-19 has shown us. Virtual, always available, and at home. Now it’s up to us to make a new normal of care delivery- liberating, highly efficient and effective. This book shows us a clear path forward in the midst of crisis.”
“A must read for all interested in digitalization and the future of healthcare IT. Written by a nationally recognized leader with professional integrity.”
“Digital medicine is now medicine. Technology should increase the quality of the data available to physicians and enhance the consumer experience for patients.

This book outlines well why all providers should embrace the change and accelerate their digital transformation.”
“Timely and inspiring! Our new digital world will require leadership that is innovative, courageous, passionate and effective. Ed and Paddy provide a roadmap that healthcare leaders must embrace.”

Ed and Paddy have the expertise, know-how, and networks; Let them help light your path.”
“I recognized Ed’s career potential when I hired him for his very first healthcare job - and Ed proved me right!”
“Healthcare Digital Transformation" is a breath of fresh air for an industry that often keeps the windows closed. In their excellent book, Ed Marx and Paddy Padmanabhan make the case that for healthcare executives to grow, they must seek both knowledge and talent from outside the domain, looking to other industries for novel ways forward.”
“Covid-19 pandemic has pushed the healthcare industry into the biggest disruption in decades forcing fundamental examination of how business and services are provided. Healthcare Digital Transformationis a forward-looking blueprint to navigate and “create” the future state.

“Understanding digital is critical for any organization, especially as we move toward the post-pandemic era. This is a great roadmap for any Leader, regardless of industry. As an example, and what makes this book such a great tool/roadmap; is each chapter includes a high-level ‘consult’- practical ideas you can use to implement the concepts from the respective chapter.”
“Transformations are never easy, digital or physical. Everyone knows that the Healthcare industry needs a massive revamp. Ed Marx and Paddy Padmanabhan’s book is a refreshing look at how one engages in an enterprise transformation that is based on a three-legged framework that sits on vast domain experience, process/method rigor and new age digital technology.”
“Thoroughly enjoyed the book and it is certainly the most comprehensive call-to-action that I have seen as of yet in terms of framing the digital evolution and landscape in healthcare.”
“The ideas in this book were time tested, successful strategies that I, as The CEO of New York City Health & Hospitals and Ed, as chief digital officer implemented during largest public hospital system’s the process of digital transformation. The framework is foundational for success for any organization no matter where you are.”
“This is the most timely book of our times that not only provides the guidance to alter the slow spiral diminish of our industry, but rather prepares us with a roadmap and applies the intellectual capital to accelerate our transformation and embraces the digital world to exceed any other industry from the past.”
