Looking into the Future: Fearless Optimism Meets Realism
Lots of people and organizations track and forecast
changes in the $4 trillion US Health system. Few have been at it as long as Jeff Goldsmith. For forty years, Jeff Goldsmith has analyzed changes in healthcare technology,
financing, policy and care organization. You can find his forecasts in the Writings and Blog Postings Section of this Website (sample the “Looking Into the Future” section
of Writings for some of his personal favorites), and in publications such as Harvard Business Review, Health Affairs, the Wall Street Journal and Modern Healthcare. Jeff
is not blinded by shiny objects; his analysis looks at the underlying secular trends which affect healthcare over a five to ten year time horizon (sometimes far longer).
He is also allergic to “groupthink”; if something doesn’t make sense, it doesn’t end up in his forecasts, regardless of how loud the chorus of industry voices.
Healthcare is the most dynamic sector of the US economy, and continues to attract tens of billions in annual investment. Jeff is an honest, courageous and realistic
voice for change in that health system. Don’t hesitate to contact him if you want to hear that voice or engage in dialog.
