Health Care 2030: The Coming Transformation (2021) by Eyal Zimlichman, Wendy Nicklin, Rajesh Aggarwal, and David W. Bates
The problems in our health care systems include subpar quality and patient safety, a misplaced focus on acute care rather than on prevention and population health, inadequate person centeredness, and unsustainable cost.
The next decade will see considerable transformation in how health systems are designed, propelled by opportunities such as digital health, growing consumerism, and mounting financial constraints.
The Covid-19 pandemic has also necessitated and accelerated significant transformations.
The authors discuss gaps and barriers in the current design of health and health systems, and the needed escalation of transformation including transition from hospital-based systems to primary care, community, and social care–based systems.
They also assess the future evolution of payment systems leading toward sustainable health, changes in provider roles, and the entrance of new nontraditional players
