Insights for Healthcare Leaders & Change Makers
Dear HCEG Colleagues and Friends:

Can you believe we are halfway through 2020!  If you are like me, the last few months have felt like a decade, if not a century.  But we have each made the adjustments, one step at a time, to be able to keep our organizations aligned with our respective mission and vision and moving in a positive direction.  COVID-19 is still a significant factor in what is happening in healthcare and is affecting almost every aspect of our lives.

If you haven’t been able to join in the HCEG webinars, discussions and posts in the last few weeks, take advantage of the recordings and links in today’s newsletter.  In addition, given the dramatic impact COVID-19 has had on healthcare, HCEG has launched, in partnership with Change Healthcare, a mini-Industry Pulse survey to assess the issues raised by COVID-19.
 
We want to hear and share your insights as to changes in 2020 HCEG Top 10 list of challenges, issues, and opportunities, how priorities have changed, and what new challenges and opportunities you are facing; especially with respect to the transition to a more consumer-centric and value-based care healthcare system.  Please take the short survey at your earliest convenience.

In the meantime, stay safe and be well.
