Charting a course to the future of healthcare is significantly challenging, but it is also full of opportunity. Several waves of crisis are affecting health systems across the globe, including rising demand among aging populations suffering high chronic-disease burdens, continuing workforce shortages and the harmful effects of climate change on health. Whether it concerns high, middle or low-income countries and territories, public or private, healthcare systems around the world are facing similar issues which often lead to compromised affordability, accessibility and quality of care.
To deal with these issues, we believe that a fundamental change of course in how healthcare systems operate is essential. Senior healthcare leaders should be seeking transformational and innovative approaches to sector problems as traditional interventions are no longer effective given the magnitude of the sector’s unprecedented challenges.
