A shock like Covid actually has helped as a catalyst to adopting more technology. Telehealth has become more prevalent at this point in time. I don’t think that is going to be temporary; it’s going to be here to stay. There’s also a shift from fee-for-service to value based. That’s a huge shift that is going to be reverberating across the health care spectrum. And I don’t know about the labor shortage today. Is that temporary or permanent? I don’t know. But at least for now, that labor shortage is also bringing a lot of change.

Summary:

A global pandemic forced rapid shifts in an institution that already had been a focal point of calls for change: healthcare.

While much remains to be done, the healthcare continuum has pivoted in several positive ways, according to a panel of local experts interviewed by the Dallas Business Journal in partnership with Greenberg Traurig and Access Healthcare.

Maintaining health — not just intervening when something goes wrong — has become a point of emphasis, in tandem with efforts to get individuals more involved with their health. Likewise, healthcare entities now recognize the importance of delivering care to patients in more accessible and proactive ways rather than waiting for patients to come to them.

The panelists brought out perspectives on the impact of COVID-19, emerging technologies in healthcare, hospital finances, the shift to value-based care, the rise of wearable devices, and interoperability.
