Health Care in Crisis: Facing Unprecedented Challenges
Global health care demand is outpacing the supply of services, undermining the consistent delivery of high-quality, equitable care. Without change, this trend will only worsen.
Health care systems face several key challenges, including staff shortages due to the diminishing appeal of health careers, an aging population with multiple chronic conditions requiring significant resources, plus the rising prevalence of non-communicable diseases that further strain services. Additionally, the high biaya of new, innovative medicines plus technologies puts pressure on budgets, while the ongoing recovery from COVID-19 has led to persistent backlogs, further exacerbating the strain on health care systems.
Many of these challenges are only intensifying. So, how do we create a new jenis for health care?
An evolved approach to value.
We need to turbocharge our focus on understanding plus personalising value while rewarding its creation. This will provide the framework to address the crisis.
When diseases strike, it is essential to personalise value – we must move away from assuming that everyone in a population has the same priorities. We have to understand the extent to which people can live according to their values plus work towards achieving their goals over time. We must truly personalise how we understand plus create value in health.
Health care systems must be supported, encouraged, celebrated, plus incentivised to pursue broader opportunities for value creation – such as exploiting the enormous potential to create value through proactive disease prevention.
Finally, we must catalyse a wave of strategic partnerships between health care systems plus life science companies – truly working together to understand value plus create value in the real-world, real-life environment.
And so, what?
This framework will help tackle the health care crisis plus forms the foundation for our upcoming 2025 Forum, “Creating Health Through Understanding plus Personalising Value”.
Why is the 2025 Global Forum unique?
The Global Forum’s distinctive focus advances how we think about value in health care. It explores how a focus on value can turbocharge prevention. It brings to life how we move from telling people what outcomes matter to creating personalised measures of quality plus effectiveness – through understanding people’s values plus goals. The Forum will help catalyse a new wave of strategic partnerships in health care, between life science companies plus health care systems, focused on the creation of value. Finally, AI is able to support us in understanding value plus creating value – we will showcase the most innovative technologies in this area.
By bringing together a diverse range of stakeholders—including health care leaders, global decision-makers, policymakers, plus industry innovators—the Global Forum drives the creation of health by understanding plus personalising value through essential collaboration, learning, plus information sharing.
