Inside the 2026 Impact of Change® Forecast

In this episode of Edge Perspectives (that’s right new name, new logo, new brand!), host Trevor DaRin is joined by Strategy Intelligence experts Tori Richie, Associate Principal, and Karyl Kopaskie, PhD, Principal, to unpack the latest Impact of Change® Forecast and the forces shaping healthcare demand over the next decade. Together, they explore the shift from inpatient to ambulatory care, the growing challenges of payer mix deterioration, and how AI, pharmaceutical innovation, and changing patient behaviors are reshaping the future of healthcare delivery.

Note to our listeners: Sg2 Perspectives was recently renamed Edge Perspectives. Same great hosts, same great content, expanding to cover data-driven market intelligence, quality and operations insights from health care provider leaders. There is no action needed for you to keep this podcast in your subscriptions and feeds. But you will see a new logo and a new name. We are always excited to get ideas and feedback from our listeners.
