The Future of Health Care Delivery
The manner in which Americans pay for, interact with, and evaluate health care choices is undergoing a significant shift. Cowen continues to forecast an evolution of health care away from the traditional fee-for-service payment model to a model that focuses on value and population health.
We expect these changes to persist as payers and providers become more focused on value-based care models (driving consolidation); pharmacies expand their reach connecting consumers, drug developers, and providers; and wellness continues to accelerate, expanding the market for digital health providers.
