5 Healthcare predictions for 2020

As the year ends, athenaInsight sat down with three healthcare experts to share their predictions for the coming year. A clear trend emerged: in 2020, the tide of value-based care will continue. To that end, the nexus of care will shift, employers and payers will drive innovation, and technology will pave the way for better risk analysis and patient outreach. According to Koustav Chatterjee, digital health industry analyst at Frost and Sullivan, "2020 is going to be a landmark year when, for the very first time, both payers and providers will embrace full-blown value-based care strategies." As regulatory requirements become clearer and more stable, and data is finally showing a tangible ROI, the transition to risk and quality-based programs will continue unabated.
