Description
By 2020 there will be at least 10 percent fewer hospitals. The survivors will be more specialized as caregivers master rules-based medicine to move upstream and as hospitals focus their resources on what is “best” to do versus what is “good” to do. Integration will be evidenced by the growth of hospital systems and multispecialty physician groups responding to payment and policy initiatives. Although it won’t have been easy, information exchanges will be completely digital.
