Today’s employee-centric market requires employers to work even harder to attract, retain, and engage top talent. During the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, organizations focused their response to this unprecedented crisis, primarily through keeping their employees engaged and productive.

The advancement in technology and competition in the market highlights the importance of customer experience. Applying this concept to healthcare, a service provider brings forth the value of patient experience. Particularly after the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, transformative patient engagement has become vital for healthcare organizations to maintain economic viability. To respond to this need, hospitals and clinics have streamlined their interactions for improving patient experience.

The healthcare industry is witnessing a paradigm shift. Value-based care is becoming more commonplace over the traditional fee-for-service (FFS) model. Healthcare providers are the primary stakeholders in value-based care, and thus responsible for making pivotal changes in care delivery to enable value-based contracting. According to Deloitte research, between 2014 and 2020, there was a 19% increase in the proportion of providers who say they have a prominent role in limiting the use of unnecessary treatments and tests.

The rising importance of patient centricity in the healthcare environment means that the patient’s voice is now at the center of vendor development and provider deployment efforts. This increasing patient self-reliance has transformed care delivery norms, acknowledging the patients’ desire to participate in their healthcare proactively. With the winds of digital transformation, patients are now starting to weigh their healthcare options as an online shopping experience.
