Future of Healthcare Week
Healthcare has never been more important to the global economy than during the past two years. Now healthcare systems will need to start tackling a mounting backlog of non-covid care. But despite rising demands and costs, global healthcare spending growth in 2022 will slow to 4.1% as governments start to assess the economic damage wreaked by the pandemic. Leaders are faced with new challenges to mitigate vulnerabilities, manage sustainability and improve the value of health ecosystems to reach broader economic and development aims in line with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3, “Good Health and Well-being”. Healthcare consumers and patients are increasingly custodians of their own data and expect to access healthcare on demand—anywhere and anytime. The ratio of doctors per thousand patients in Asia is less than the OECD average, and the world is short 9m nurses according to World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates. Given their constraints, how can forward-leaning healthcare organisations pursue more resilient, nimble and sustainable operations to ensure continuity of care?
This November, join our third Future of Healthcare Week Asia, a dynamic, hybrid event uniting the public, private and civil sectors across health and technology to innovate better healthcare for all. Over three days, 4,000 healthcare leaders will convene to examine the vulnerabilities and opportunities that the recent crisis has catalysed as the industry strives to “build back better”. Policymakers, healthcare providers, academics and scientists will come together with representatives from industry, patient associations, charities and finance to assess issues around diversity, equity and inclusion, vulnerabilities and labour shortages in the healthcare system, healthy ageing, digital health and data, and how we can break down silos within and between organisations to further the efficiency and sustainability of healthcare for all. Join the dialogue as leaders move beyond healthcare to health, via more preventive care, and beyond the hospital to the community.
