Who’s Paying for Healthcare? New Business Models

The healthcare industry is in the midst of widespread change, with digital delivery of care now commonplace. Increasingly, care providers and insurers are embracing patient-generated health data from devices and moving to a more consumer-centric design of delivering care at home. However, with the COVID-19 public health emergency set to end this year, emergency use authorizations and waivers for many initiatives will be phased out in 2023. This will impact reimbursement, channels, and the strategies of many companies. Players in the health at home space must be prepared to best position themselves to this coming change, evaluating their business models, services, and ways of delivering healthcare.
