The tectonic plates of health services are shifting radically in this, the third decade of the twenty-first century. In response to challenges to every health system across the world, including more patient demands, accelerating chronic and complex conditions, a stressed and stretched workforce, and insufficient resources to pay for all the newer technologies that are emerging, health services are playing catch-up.
In this keynote, we take a look at some international trends that I have been following, analysing, and commenting on with 148 colleagues covering 152 countries for the last 10 years. In this talk, we will discuss five key innovative solutions to the challenges healthcare faces. These are:
- Shift left, stay left.
- The 60:30:10 equation.
- High performing hospital of the future.
- The future of health care to 2030 – the 5+9 model.
- Learning health systems.
