At the moment I’ve the very unhappy information that Ian Morrison died peacefully at dwelling yesterday. He had been sick for some time and within the hospice, however a couple of months in the past he advised me he was going for Jimmy Carter's document. Ian was my first boss in American well being care once I labored for him on the Institute for the Future and he was simply as pleasant and delightful as he was humorous and educated. I used to be very blissful that once I began THCBGang throughout the Pandemie, he was a everlasting member.

For many years, Ian has labored with everybody in well being care in America and internationally, however as he used to say, it was primarily paid to insult individuals. That he did it so humorous and helpful was the rationale he was all the time invited. Each Ian Morrison -keynote at a big well being care convention was each a chance to study one thing and to giggle hysterically.

He additionally by no means ignored the chance to assist those that attempt to make well being care extra truthful and truthful, who serve on the boards of the board of Martin Luther King JR Hospital, the California Healthcare Basis and lots of others. He remained a jovial Glaswegian socialist in coronary heart and soul.

Ian preferred to say that he went from Scotland the place dying was on his arms, to Canada the place dying was inevitable, to California the place dying was elective. Sadly, the final crack was not fully true.

My coronary heart goes out to his spouse Nora and their youngsters and grandchildren. There will likely be a extra formal dying commercial and a celebration of his life within the coming days and weeksMatthew Holt
