The Healthcare industry is changing. As costs
continue to rise, payers and employers are asking
patients to become more accountable for their
health expenses. Government programs like Medicare
and Medicaid are shifting more individuals to
managed-care programs and introducing incentives
that reward quality and patient satisfaction.
Meanwhile, providers are under pressure to deliver
better, cost-effective outcomes. In order to navigate
these challenges, the industry and investors are
betting technology is the right prescription.
