    The inspiring true story of how a small group of dedicated leaders achieved radical and relentless change to save McLean, Harvard’s historic psychiatric hospital
     
    Lloyd I. Sederer, MD, recounts the unfettered story of how McLean survived impending closure or sale to once again prosper and regain its international stature as the hospital where you would want a loved one to be treated for a psychiatric or substance use disorder.
        Only growth and innovation can reverse an institutional fiscal crisis. Dr. Sederer describes how, over six years of hemorrhaging money, McLean eluded the now pervasive corporatization of American healthcare and was clinically and financially rebuilt despite the odds, all while serving with integrity and soul more patients than ever before. 
        Caught in the Crosshairs of American Healthcare offers leaders and aspiring leaders in healthcare and other complex organizations a candid look behind the curtain of McLean’s transformation into a hospital open to all, no longer only the rich and famous. Dr. Sederer also finely details
    
    • the corporatization of medicine putting profits before patients,
    • endless insurance hurdles, 
    • how to prove clinical improvements, and 
    • our broken and inequitable health and mental health systems of care.
    
        Caught in the Crosshairs of American Healthcare shows that with grit, brains, and support, we can still change our world.
