Changing health care system
In response to the rising costs

What is innovation?
It is the implementation of a new or significantly improved product, or process, a new
marketing method, or a new organisational method in business practices, workplace
organisation or external relations (OECD, 2005).
- Novelty + implementation
- Innovation is and outcome, innovation is a process, and innovation is a mindset.
Within healthcare: those changes that help healthcare practitioners focus on the
patient and other stakeholders by helping them to work smarter, faster, better and/or
more cost effectively.
New uses: original products positioned in new markets without any significant
change.
, New category entries: products that are new to the company, but not new to the
consumer.
New-to-the-world products: technological innovations that create a completely new market
that previously did not exist. These innovations would be characterised new.
Recombination: if you mix technologies to come up with one new one. This is
more incremental innovation.
Technological innovation and service innovation

to its characteristics or intended use.
Service innovation embodies new elements introduces into an organisation which do not
principally involve supplying a good and it consists of mainly intangible combinations of
processes, skills, and materials.

- Intangible, …
- Heterogenous, ….
- Perishable, cannot be sold, returned.
- Inseparable, they can be produced and consumed.
Incremental VS radical innovations
