CHICAGO, Sept. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Healthcare is facing a set of challenges unlike any the industry has ever experienced, from increased competition and workforce struggles to eroding public trust. At the same time, innovations in science and technology, along with the evolution of care-delivery models, create a host of opportunities for the industry to reshape itself. More than 300 senior healthcare leaders from 150 companies committed to transforming healthcare will convene in Chicago on Sept. 19–21, 2022, to discuss the industry's future at the 10th annual Oliver Wyman Health Innovation Summit.
The invitation-only event, titled New Norms, New Expectations, brings together executives, experts, and influencers from across the globe to explore ways of creating positive change in healthcare. "As an industry, we face bigger challenges — and have greater obligations to society — than ever before." said Sam Glick, partner and global leader of Oliver Wyman's Health and Life Sciences practice. "At the same time, for those of us who are willing to take a hard look in the mirror and think differently about how we understand and engage with those we serve, there is more opportunity than we've ever had before. Understanding, compassion, and community connection are now as important as quality, affordability, and innovation."
