Futurescan 2025: Health Care Trends and Implications
Futurescan 2025 is the latest in a series of publications for health care leaders, produced by SHSMD in collaboration with the American College of Healthcare Executives (ACHE) since 1999. The report is an invaluable strategic planning resource, empowering hospital and health system leaders to prepare themselves and their organizations for the opportunities and challenges ahead.
In this edition of Futurescan, we hear from eight subject matter experts at the forefront of implementing innovative strategies to advance health care in the U.S. They cover diverse topics such as value-based care financing models, strategic planning imperatives, community collaborations to improve social determinants of health, workforce expectations, sustainability for smaller hospitals, and advances in digital behavioral health and predictive technologies. Despite the broad range of topics, these strategies aim for common goals: reducing health care costs, improving outcomes, and enhancing the patient experience.
