Job Description

 

Healthcare systems have never been more challenged. One in every three people are dying from preventable causes. There are rising numbers of patients with multiple chronic diseases. Many populations are aging. Healthcare systems must reconcile these challenges against a backdrop of already stretched budgets, 30% of which are used inefficiently. Many solutions to these challenges already exist. We need to help patients and systems to access them.

Movement Health 2030 does this by paving the way for public-private partnerships, accelerating the progress of new solution adoption across healthcare systems.The Movement works with a range of healthcare stakeholders to discover big, bottleneck problems in healthcare services that if solved, will open the floodgates to improved patient outcomes and reduce the cost of care.

In the next three years, over 50 countries will join the Movement. HCPs, policymakers, corporations and entrepreneurs will co-create solutions and align on the outcomes required to scale these healthcare solutions actionable and compelling. Systemic solutions will be co-created and pilots will be launched with external partners to help bring about fast, impactful transformation. But pilots are just the beginning. Their results will stimulate meaningful, evidence-based healthcare system transformation proposals that suggest policy and operational evolution unlocking access to better healthcare for all.
