Steve Case Predictions for Health Care

Steve case believes 8 things will happen in health care in the next decade:

1. consumers will take control
2. centralized approaches will break down - distributed systems and open networks will take over
3. less regulation in health care in the long term
4. a torrent of innovation in the health space over the next decade - dealing with people while they are healthy (wellness and prevention) and when they are sick and moving into the world of chronic disease.
5. innovation and disruption also leads to chaos & misfires. some bad stuff will happen, but on balance good.
6. emphasis on being healthy, staying healthy
7. personalization - the one size fits all approach will break down. people will engage more and care more about their health if they have personalized tools to manage their health.
8. the killer application is community. people are social beings. instant messenger, social media, etc. if community is important to kids listening to music and watching movies, imagine how important it will be to people who have health issues.
