Developed by the American Medical Association’s Accelerating Change in Medical Education Consortium, Health Systems Science is the first text that focuses on providing a fundamental understanding of how health care is delivered, how health care professionals work together to deliver that care, and how the health system can improve patient care and health care delivery. Along with basic and clinical science, Health Systems Science (HSS) is rapidly becoming a crucial 'third pillar' of medical science, requiring a practical, standardized curriculum with an emphasis on understanding the role of human factors, systems engineering, leadership, and patient improvement strategies that will help transform the future of health care and ensure greater patient safety.

"Skochelak and Hawkins do an exemplary job of introducing the principles of HSS and convincing the reader that these topics must be formally embraced and integrated into medical education…. As one of the first publications to describe an approach to health systems education, Skochelak and Hawkins offer an excellent, novel framework on HSS, and readers will come away with a strong foundation of knowledge necessary to be active change agents of healthcare improvement and educate others to do the same."
