How can global advancements in technology influence the American healthcare system?

On this episode of Built On Strategy, we are joined by Prateek Bhatia, Vice President of Payer Strategy with McKesson, one of the global leaders in healthcare supply chain management solutions, retail pharmacy, healthcare technology, community oncology, and special care. We discuss the rapidly evolving world of telehealth and how internet access, 5G speed networking potential, and outsourcing of medical experts for personal care will shape the future of the healthcare industry. The American healthcare system is complicated, and while the average citizen is not equipped to evaluate the true cost of the care they receive, there are massive networks of professionals looking at the possibility of remote health services. Cumulatively, over the course of our lives, health insurance is one of the primary expenses for Americans, warranting creative solutions for patients to receive information, rehabilitation, and care. Prateek and other professional strategists are innovating ways for the system to better serve society through efficiency and technology.
