July 16, 2024- A new survey conducted by Global Healthcare Exchange (GHX) sheds light on the prevailing attitudes and expectations regarding the future of the U.S. healthcare system. The survey, which tapped senior healthcare executives for their insight, indicates that the industry will continue to undergo significant changes due to various internal and external forces, including technology adoption, government policy, market competition and global economics.
Despite the uncertainty ahead, there is more optimism than pessimism regarding healthcare’s future. Seventy percent of survey respondents said they expect public trust and confidence in the U.S. healthcare system to improve gradually during the next five to 10 years. Key takeaways include that AI will have a profound impact, Integrated Health Systems will dominate, financial pressures may drive industry consolidation and competition, and more.
