Healthcare business models are particularly challenging to distinguish between customers, buyers, and the users.   Many claim we are moving away from our business as usual “fee for service” to value based reimbursement. What does this mean for digital health, biotech and device entrepreneurs and what is the timing for this change?   Who pays for any solutions in healthcare?  Where can you be successful?
 
This session will start with a discussion of healthcare customers: insurance companies, hospitals, doctors, patients, and consumers.  We will focus on the unique challenges that each  present.   What defines winning for each player?  And what does each player need to do to win.
 
We will propose various approaches to help your business models succeed by drawing on our own healthcare startup and corporate experiences
