236: What CEOs need to know in 2025 (Part 2)

Advisory Board experts Natalie Trebes and Max Hakanson rejoin host Abby Burns for part two of our conversation digging into the trends and challenges healthcare leaders need to pay attention to in 2025. Last week, our experts covered evolving power dynamics around network design, drug cost/spend, and cyber threats. This week, the group shifts their attention to unpack what’s happening with our core care delivery infrastructure. What is the state of health systems—and what’s in store for them? They also tackle the elephant in the room: how should leaders be thinking about the policy landscape as we enter a new administration? Our State of the Industry research team is kicking off their annual research and wants to hear from you to help shape the research! We want to know what your “up at night” issues are, what questions you have, and what your organization is focusing on in order to navigate the waters ahead.
