Tenet 6.7: Health 3.0 promotes the antifragile – skin in the game of health care. I’m naked and exposed now. And that’s the way I want it to be. After running my gastroenterology practice under the traditional insurance model for over ten years, I came out of all insurance networks in April 2016. It
Tenet 6.6: Health 3.0 promotes the antifragile – the neomania and noise of Health 2.0. The Health 2.0 Meetup group in town was all about the new era of health care. An era of digital health.

Tenet 6.1: Health 3.0 promotes the antifragile — the problem of too big to fail. I volunteer some time teaching gastroenterology trainees at my alma mater. The senior ones seeking a job will ask me what group I’m with. I tell them the group of me, myself, and I. They have a look of
Tenet 6: Health 3.0 promotes the antifragile — an introduction to antifragility. Two years ago I hid away in every crevice of a Princess Cruises ship to Alaska doing something that would make life never be the same again. No, it wasn’t illegal or scandalous.
