Healthcare trends

We’ve entered a new world when it comes to healthcare. If you received medical services during the past three years, you observed the myriad changes to how they’re delivered. And, according to numerous industry-focused statistics, patients don’t want healthcare providers to turn back the clock on these advancements. Instead, they want providers to embrace those changes while continuing to seek new ways to improve patient experiences. And, though you might believe that progressive mindset is exclusive to younger patients, it isn’t. For example, according to Cigna, “44 percent of older adults (ages 50 – 80) use at least one mobile health app, and 25 percent of those…have shared health information with their providers.”¹
