The State Of Healthcare

Change is constant in healthcare, and 2025 is proving to be no different. The Trump administration ushered in a new regulatory era, including the One Big Beautiful Bill Act which will have far-reaching, long-lasting effects on the industry, especially insurers and providers. Use cases for generative artificial intelligence (AI) continue to propagate. And financial pressures are not easing.

Leading during times of disruption is never easy. But executives must adapt their strategies and be agile. This collection of articles from experts in Oliver Wyman’s Health and Life Sciences practice digs into some of the biggest trends reshaping healthcare in 2025. Importantly, they showcase how leaders can drive transformation in their organizations and across the industry.

The focus on performance transformation impacts every corner of the industry. The potential of home-based care reflects a need to find alternatives for low-cost, high-quality care. Advancements in AI are enabling healthcare leaders to make informed decisions that align with consumer needs. At the same time, cybersecurity is increasingly recognized as a strategic priority.

Addressing any of these issues requires significant attention. But nothing in healthcare occurs in a vacuum. There are threads that connect all of these issues and executives must take a broad view as they embark on their transformation journey.
