The Future of Healthcare
Friday, May 24 | 3:00pm - 4:00pm AT
Presented by Dr. Zayna Khayat
Due to multiple parallel forces including technology and changing user expectations, health & care is transitioning from a 19th-century institution that treated illness in facilities and clinics, to a system that puts the power back into people’s hands. This has direct implications for all citizens, including the many million clinicians who work in the sector. The future of health will look nothing like its bricks-and-mortar past. Public institutions and the private sector are actively reimagining how healthcare will be organized, financed, and delivered in years to come. Join us to hear health futurist Dr. Zayna Khayat bring powerful perspective, and insights into what clinicians, citizens, employers, and policy-makers must do today to enable or even catalyze needed changes tomorrow.
