Healthcare: On the Edge of a Major Paradigm Shift

Healthcare is approaching a significant inflection point as technology, changing care-delivery models, shifting consumer expectations, evolving reimbursement dynamics, and new approaches to healthcare investment reshape the industry. In this discussion, Christopher W. Kersey and Tom Montgomery will explore the forces driving change across the healthcare landscape and what these shifts could mean for healthcare organizations, investors, and the financial executives responsible for navigating them. The conversation will focus on where the industry is headed, where traditional models may be challenged, and how leaders can prepare for the opportunities and risks ahead.
