Despite the tremendous progress health systems and clinical research have achieved, the quality and cost of care delivered around the world are sub-optimal and highly variable.

An estimated 30% of the $7–8 trillion we spend globally on health care is considered wasted. There is growing momentum towards transforming today’s health care systems into “Value-Based Health Care (VBHC) Systems.”

To address this problem, the World Economic Forum, in collaboration with BCG, led the Value in Healthcare initiative from 2016–2018.
This initiative to define and pilot value-base health care systems around the world. Now we are at a critical point where we need to accelerate the pace of health system transformation.

That’s why the World Economic Forum is launching the Global Coalition for Value in Healthcare, with BCG as one of its founding partners.
