OPEN MINDS Announces Executive Roundtable Detailing The 2025 Market Trends Shaping Health Care
Gettysburg, Pa. (April 20, 2024) On May 1, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. ET, OPEN MINDS Chief Executive Officer Monica E. Oss, Chief Strategy Officer Paul Duck, and senior advisor Jonathan Evans will have a discussion on up-to-the-minute changes shaping the health and human services landscape during the OPEN MINDS Circle Executive Roundtable, Shaping The Future: Health Care Policy & Market Trends In 2025.
The current market is being shaped by many forces—from Capitol Hill to Silicon Valley and from Main Street to Wall Street. Understanding how these factors could impact your communities and being prepared are critical to sustainability and growth. This session provides your leadership team with the intel and insights to prepare for challenges and embrace opportunities.
“The uncertainty we’re seeing in today’s market is being driven by the actions of the new administration, the increased importance of technology and artificial intelligence (AI) on business models, and the competition between financially stressed provider organizations,” said Monica E. Oss. “What is required from executive leadership is a modified and flexible approach to strategy and to management.”
Executive attendees of this session will learn about:
- The current and pending changes from Washington
- The new science—technology, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals—reshaping service delivery
- The changing competitive landscape—from the health plan, hospital, retail health, and private equity sectors
- The impact of these market factors on the health care landscape
- A framework for managing through chaos for success and growth
There will be an opportunity for Q&A. All participants will receive a market intelligence briefing package from the OPEN MINDS team.
To register for the 1:00 p.m. ET, May 1 event, visit Shaping The Future: Health Care Policy & Market Trends In 2025. There is no cost to register, but a free membership in the OPEN MINDS Circle is required.
