Healthcare Rap: Yearly Predictions Series: Jane Sarasohn-Kahn & Amy Heymans
Speech Topics
The pandemic accelerated the migration of healthcare to the home, enabled through broadband connectivity, remote monitoring and consumer-facing medical devices, and consumers’ focus on self-care. Understand the drivers fostering the movement of healthcare-to-home, opportunities for collaboration across industries, and prospects for the future.
The pandemic reshaped all businesses to embrace health and well-being for its workers and stakeholder. As patients morph into health consumers, paying more out-of-pocket for medical care, people seek more retail-level experiences as health care payers. At the same time, health spending increasing competes with other household spending. Increasingly, healthcare “feels” more like a retail experience to the health consumer, seeking greater engagement on their own terms. Learn more about this phenomenon and opportunities for collaboration from the grocery store and retail pharmacy to financial services and consumer electronics.
ZIP codes, Wi-Fi, and love have more in common than you think. All are social determinants that shape individuals’ health outside of medical care. Jane will reflect on the impact of social determinants of health (SDoH) factors over the past decade – where we live, work, play, pray, learn and shop – to inform and inspire strategies for the next decade.
