The CEO of Zocdoc, a healthcare technology company, argues that traditional "disruption" playbooks, which involve building new systems and forcing incumbents to adapt, consistently fail in the healthcare industry. He points to numerous examples like Haven, Walmart Health, IBM Watson Health, and Babylon Health, which, despite significant investment and ambition, ultimately faltered. The CEO emphasizes that healthcare is a complex systems and incentives problem, not merely a technological one, and that successful innovation must work within the existing framework rather than trying to replace it.
