About Terry Adirim, M.D.
Dr. Terry Adirim has spent her career inside the health care system—leading it, fixing it, and understanding exactly where it fails patients.
As Acting Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs, she oversaw TRICARE, a $54-billion integrated health system serving nearly 10 million patients. She has led hospitals, academic medical centers, and large physician organizations—redesigning how care is delivered, measured, and paid for.
She knows how the system works. More importantly, she knows how it doesn't.
The Prepared Patient is the book she wished every patient had before walking through the door.
