The fact that 'health consumer' is common parlance shows just how far we have come in the past few years; but the reality is we still have a long way to go," said Terry Stone, global managing partner of Oliver Wyman's (News - Alert) Health & Life Sciences practice. "The B2B method of delivering healthcare isn't working. The industry needs to pivot and consider healthcare from the consumer's perspective. Only then will we see progress on issues such as behavior change, exceptional experience, and lasting value." Highlights of the upcoming Summit include:
The Oliver Wyman Health Innovation Summit is supported by platinum sponsor Alignment Healthcare; silver sponsors, Guidewell, Healthways (a Sharecare company), Mercer, and Softheon; bronze sponsors Allscripts, Edifecs, Livongo, Mosaic Health Solutions, Motive Medical Intelligence (News - Alert), Optum, Rite Aid, Sheppard Mullin, and Zipongo; and supporting partners American Well, Athena Health, Bloom Health, Envision Genomics, Healthsparq, Pharm MD, Propeller, and Triple Tree.
