To guide systems towards an inclusive future, leaders should also understand and harness the power of future trends in the areas of technology and data, consumerism, workforce, communities, and environment, social, and governance (ESG) that are expected to profoundly impact every industry, including healthcare in the next decade.
Delivering ‘inclusive’ healthcare systems will require radical transformation that leverages technology to evolve workforce models, empower communities, and create ecosystems that enable seamless interactions between local, national and global organizations. Transformation of such magnitude will require strong collaboration between all healthcare system stakeholders and planning horizons that are much longer than typical one-or four-year business planning cycles. At KPMG, we feel that urgent action is needed to transform the sector. Healthcare organizations should adopt a change agenda that will help them navigate through the successive waves of future crises and challenges to a new horizon where their organizations and communities thrive, and benefit from improved health and care.
