The Platform for Shaping the Future of Health and Healthcare serves the mission to ensure every person on earth has equal access to the highest standards of health and healthcare by keeping populations healthy and delivering the best care.

In the next decade, healthcare delivery systems will transform radically. Our current capital intensive, hospital-centric model is unsustainable and ineffective. The Future of Health and Healthcare leverages a data-enabled delivery system and virtual care, integrated across the continuum of care from precision prevention to personalized care delivery, with most health services offered in appropriate settings.

To achieve the mission, the Platform for Shaping the Future of Health and Healthcare supports stakeholders in the global health and healthcare ecosystem prepare for the future by 1) encouraging new models of collaboration/partnership in addressing challenges, creating opportunities and scaling existing best-in-class initiatives in public-private coalitions, and 2) raising awareness, building a shared understanding and driving collective action to leverage the Fourth Industrial Revolution to transform the health and healthcare systems.
