Fortune’s Term Sheet asked several professionals in healthcare finance to offer their predictions for 2023. Their responses are below.
“More mental health and primary care integration and M&A activity will happen to deliver virtual wraparounds for in-person primary care and/or mental health. This will play a prominent role in enabling value capture in value-based/at-risk contract structures.” —Naomi Allen, co-founder and CEO, Brightline
“Due to the rise of digital infrastructure and no/low code solutions, insurance will become ‘invisible’ in everyday transactions. Companies that enable these features will gain access to vastly different datasets on consumer behavior, making underwriting faster and creating more personalized, predictive policies.” —Lily Lyman, partner, Underscore VC
“In 2023, we expect to see innovation in technologies addressing issues like social isolation for the age 50+ market given the fact that nearly 26 million Americans 50 or older now live alone, up from 15 million just twenty years ago. We need more human-to-human interactions facilitated by technology, from making friends to reskilling for employment to receiving healthcare in the home. Covid has accelerated the digital penetration and comfort of this audience, despite popular belief.” —Abby Miller Levy, managing partner and co-founder, Primetime Partners
