The future of health in 2040 will be radically different from what we see today
- The health will be defined holistically as an overall stat of well-being encompassing mental, social, emotional, physical financial and spiritual health.
- Care will be organized around the needs of the consumer rather than for the convenience of clinicians and care providers.
- Empowered consumers will have access to detailed information about their health, own their health data and share in health-related decision making. They will demand accessible, affordable, and personalized healthcare products and services.
- Care delivery and digital transformation- enabled by robust, real-time, and radically interoperable data; open secure platform and artificial intelligence, virtual health, and digital technologies- will promote closer collaborations among industry stakeholders and deliver right care in the right place at the right time.
- Innovative interventions and treatment from existing and new health care providers will be more precise, less complex, less invasive and less expensive.
