5 Care Coordination Platforms I. Sometimes the Questions Are More Important Than the Answers... 5

6 Care Coordination Platforms The Questions are More Important than the Answers Will there be one or more dominant platforms? Will care coordination platforms evolve from EHRs? stand aone SW? elsewhere? What is the relevant geography for care coordination networks and platforms? Will doctors multihome their workflow on multiple platforms? Is there potential for winner-take-all markets or platforms? Will walled garden or open platforms provide greater value in healthcare? Where are the greatest value creation opportunities? Is explosive growth of Healthcare Unbound (HU) technologies dependent on emergence of health IT and/or dominant care coordination platforms? What is payers role in adoption? 6

7 II. Let s Talk About Platforms... 7

8 Value Creation vs. Value Capture Platform or App? 8

9 rd A Decade of Opening Up Platforms to 3 Party App Developers 9

10 Platform Multiple Connotations/Definitions Manufacturing, e.g, truck/suv Information/communication tech, e.g., Windows Business models/strategy 10

11 Platforms can leverage more than one layer in a technical stack Is it a platform or an app? False dichotomy Think hierarchically 11

12 IT Evolution: 1) Closed, 2) Walled Garden 3) Open Cohesive / Collaborative 3 Open Platform & Apps New Business Ecosystem 2 Walled Garden (Value Network) Fragmented 1 Closed Closed Open Technology Architecture 12

13 Opening Keynote A Manifesto for Healthcare s Disruptive Innovation of the Decade: Open EHR Technology Platform(s) and Ecosystem Vince Kuraitis JD, MBA Better Health Technologies, LLC blog (208)

14 Candidates for a Healthcare Care Coordination Platform EMR/EHR Existing medical management workflow SW Social networks HIE ACO Mobile Payer/MultiPayer other? 14

15 Are Physicians Amenable to Multihoming Their Workflow Platform(s)? Single homing -- tendency for customers to prefer single platform Multihoming tendency for customers to accept multiple platforms Implications: tendency toward single homing is one factor that creates potential for winner-take-all (or most) market 15

16 What s the Relevant Geographic Market for Care Coordination Networks & Platforms? National/International? Regional? 16

17 Why are Payers So Key in Adoption of Care Management Platforms? 1) One payer with 10% regional market share tries to dictate adoption of proprietary evidence based guidelines (e.g., for diabetes care). 2) Multiple payers with 30% regional market share (but not including Medicare) collaboratively influence development and implementation of evidence based guidelines. 3) Multiple payers with 75% market share (including Medicare) collaborate in creating public-utility like infrastructure for care and care management 17

18 III. Let s Revisit a Central Debate in Tech Circles: Walled Gardens vs. The Open Web A Case Study in Disruptive Innovation: Apple iphone & Google/Android 18

20 Apple ios and Google Android From 0% to 62% Market Share in 4 Years 20

23 Apple HQ

24 What s a Walled Garden (WG)? Controls users access to content and services Restricts the user s navigation within particular areas (applications) Not all alike: differing heights and levels of permeability to the walls. 24

25 Walled Garden (WG): Apple iphone/ios/ipad/ietc. Chronology March 7, 2007: Apple introduces iphone product March 2, 2008: Apple opens API to developers April 2011: 398 K apps 25

26 Business model Open API Virtually every other aspect closed Integrated hardware/software platform Non-swappable applications Exclusive distribution of apps. Restriction on carrier choice Restrictions and controls on developers Multiple revenue sources -- HW $$, developer $$, app store Highly controlled user experience 26

27 Google Android Operating System-Open Source SW Platform Open Handset Alliance: 30+ companies Google Android open source SW Multiple handset developers bring hardware Open API 20+ smartphones on the market use Android OS 176 K Android apps Google maintains control points, e.g., see visionmobile.com/blog/2010/04/is-android-evil/ 27

28 Google can give away Android because......we make money, and lots of it, it turns out, from advertising on mobile phones. Eric Schmidt, CEO, Google 28

39 Care Coordination Platforms The Questions are More Important than the Answers Dominant platform(s)? Yes*, 90% Will care coordination platforms evolve from EHRs? standalone SW? elsewhere? EHRs, 50% Regional or national networks? Regional 80% Will doctors multihome? No, 90% Potential for winner-take-all markets? National -- No, 80% Regional Yes, some, 70% Walled garden or open platforms? Tossup Value creation opportunities? HU tech + other apps, 90% HU tech explosive growth dependent on emergence of dominant care coordination platforms? Yes, 70% MultiPayer? Yes, 70% * Reflects Vince s personal POV with a probability percentage 39
