WHAT'S AHEAD? EMERGING TRENDS AND DRIVERS OF GROWTH
Health insurance is among the fastest growing industries globally. The COVID-19 pandemic contributed to its growth in recent years, raising health awareness among consumers and accelerating digital adoption and the evolution of healthcare ecosystems. An ageing population is increasingly seeking comprehensive coverage that includes specialised treatments and wellness programs, and demands personalised insurance plans that cater to individual needs and preferences. Additionally, customers are placing more emphasis on digital services and convenient access to healthcare providers, driving the market towards innovative technological solutions.

THE DIGITAL FORECAST: UNCERTAIN SKIES, OR A BRIGHTER FUTURE?
Digital transformation has become essential to remain competitive in today's ever-changing technological landscape, as it impacts all aspects of health insurers' existing business models: distribution, underwriting, products, pricing and claims, as well as how payers interact with their customers. Digitalisation represents an opportunity to grow existing markets and open new ones, as well as to develop closer relationships with customers and be enabled to partner with them in health management and lifestyle improvements. More efficient digital processes will also help control - and even reduce - costs and redefine the insurance payment structure.
