One-of-a-kind group of senior industry leaders commits to collaborate on health market transformation
New York – June 16, 2016 – The Oliver Wyman Health Innovation Center (OWHIC) announced today the formation of a new coalition designed to break through the silos in the healthcare industry and bring about real change. The OWHIC Leaders Alliance is comprised of senior executives from all areas of healthcare who have committed to work collaboratively on key issues impacting consumer value and overall industry sustainability.
“Oliver Wyman’s goal is to use creative thinking to address complex industry challenges and support both our clients and society at large. We are delighted to convene this important group and support collaboration around the biggest issues facing healthcare today,” said Scott McDonald, president and CEO of Oliver Wyman Group.
“Our belief is that healthcare can and must compete on value and consumer empowerment, and that the industry must be redesigned from the individual’s perspective,” said Sam Glick, Oliver Wyman partner and co-director of the OWHIC Leaders Alliance. “This vision cannot be achieved without significant cross-industry communication and collaboration, which is why it is so valuable to bring together the distinguished group of healthcare professionals in our new Leaders Alliance.”
“Our goal in forming the OWHIC Leaders Alliance was to identify individuals who are passionate about industry change, but also capable of pushing the industry forward,” said Josh Michelson, Oliver Wyman partner and co-director OWHIC Leaders Alliance. “We are confident these individuals will do just that.”
