This Malcolm Gladwell article has nothing directly to do with medical imaging or healthcare record integration, which I often discuss here, but does use analytics of data to identify the type of problem distribution (bell curve vs. power law) involved. And this seems to be a very important step to complete before designing a solution to a large, complex problem—such as homelessness and its impact on healthcare costs.

It was originally published 9 years ago, but all the stories and findings are still just as powerful today. And the solutions suggested are considered just as radical nearly a decade later.

I hope you find the time to read it, as I really enjoyed reading it.
