HealthCast

HealthCast represents a view of the future from the PricewaterhouseCoopers' Health Research Institute. To compile these reports, we conducted extensive desk research and commissioned surveys of thought leaders the world over. Those surveyed included a mix of government officials, policy makers, and top executives of hospital systems, employers, physician groups, other providers, insurers, and medical supply manufacturers.

The HealthCast series reports, which are updated every three years, are focused on the United States, the United Kingdom, Scandinavia, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Germany, New Zealand, Canada, and Australia.
