As we emerge from the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, the importance of inspiration and seeing a future where all people have access to lifesaving interventions has never been greater, and DIA aims to highlight some of the most forward-looking and positive views of what the future of healthcare will be. This year’s format will be presented as a series of perspectives representing diversity of thinking, topic, and geography, to include:

The Future of Healthcare is Inclusive
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought increased awareness to the importance of including the intended population for use of products in their development. Specifically, assuring gender, racial and ethnic, and age-related diversity and inclusion are actively sought and included in the design, testing and implementation of approaches for the treatment and prevention of disease. This presentation will focus on the use of data and analytics, including artificial intelligence to recruit a representative population for a trial.

The Future of Healthcare is Global
Overcoming barriers to access globally requires information sharing, trusted communication, and increased awareness of regulatory science challenges. Collaboration and coordination, as demonstrated by medicines regulatory authorities in times of crisis, can enhance global reliance and cooperation to increase efficiency and bring solutions to the patients that need them.

The Future of Healthcare is Centered on the Individual Patient
Patients have always been at the center of their care but there is growing need and acceptance in clinical R&D that patients are stakeholders in clinical decision making, health IT user experience, and medical product development. Focusing on what matters to patients and gathering feedback through the clinical development pipeline is an important element of improving study quality and ultimately impacting accessibility, perceptions, and market penetration. Patient preferences and satisfaction also serve as indicators for continuous improvement that can drive retention and operational efficiency.

The Future of Healthcare is Digital
Digital technologies such as wearables and video-enabled exchanges now allow for the remote collection of data and interactions with patients. In this talk a patient will share first-hand accounts of the impact of digital access to their health journey and participation in clinical trials.

Learning Objectives

Recognize the diverse sources of data that need to be collected and analyzed to provide customized and improved care; Identify collaborations that can enhance global cooperation to increase efficiency and bring solutions to the patients that need them; Discuss forward-looking and positive perspectives regarding the future of healthcare.
