Healthcare costs in the U.S. are expected to reach $6 trillion by 2027, representing roughly 18% of the GDP. Healthcare providers and payers recognize that this growth is not sustainable for the country, especially given the steep rates of clinician burnout and labor shortages expected for the foreseeable future. That is why, in 2025, I expect to see a more serious commitment and significant forward progress among stakeholders in embracing a shift from reactive to proactive care. Technology will play a critical role in this shift, with more providers adopting an AI-powered, virtual-first approach to chronic condition management to keep patients at home and prevent emergency department visits and hospitalizations.
