As healthcare organizations begin to move beyond the most severe disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is imperative that leadership and governance understand what has changed over the past two years and how these changes might influence their strategies going forward.
This article—the first in a four-part series examining post-pandemic strategic options for not-for-profit health systems—outlines major changes that have occurred since the pandemic began and discusses the implications of these changes for health systems. We thank The Governance Institute for the opportunity to publish this series in their System Focus newsletter.
