Healthcare is evolving at an unprecedented pace, and at its center is a shift from quantity to quality. For decades, healthcare systems measured success by volume—how many procedures were performed, how many patients were seen, and how many tests were conducted. While this approach created busy hospitals and clinics, it often failed to improve patient health in meaningful ways. Today, leaders are redefining success by focusing on value: outcomes that genuinely reflect improved health, patient satisfaction, and long-term well-being. This transition is reshaping the strategies, technologies, and culture of modern healthcare.
