The rise of digital, combined with increasing data and analytics capabilities, has been transforming the healthcare industry in recent years. This transformation has been accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. To be successful in the “next normal” companies are adopting flexible, agile operating models that allow for rapid response to patient and customer needs, and the ability to quickly innovate, test and learn.
