Power to the Patients | Predictions for 2025
A prediction for this year from Jason Spangler, M.D., M.P.H., CEO, Center for Innovation & Value Research.
The patient engagement movement is set to advance significantly in 2025, with patients taking greater ownership of their health. This shift will empower individuals to be actively involved across their entire healthcare journey — from developing innovations, such as drugs and digital health tools, to decisions about the value and access of these interventions.

Patient involvement will begin earlier in these processes, ensuring their voices are integral to shaping healthcare solutions. Additionally, this participation will become more inclusive, reflecting the diverse populations the healthcare system serves. These trends highlight a growing emphasis on equity and patient-centered care, redefining how healthcare systems collaborate with individuals to achieve better outcomes.
