Healthcare Payer/Provider Landscape In 2025, multiple forces are acting on the payer and provider landscape. A new administration is busy implementing policy changes with uncertain impact on MA, Medicaid, and ACA product lines. Margin improvement is still key priority for most US hospitals. Many with plans or ACO infrastructure are restructuring. Investors have played a massive role in the provider space, particular with roll ups and risk enablement strategies, but VBC has stalled in some areas. Finally, AI is in the early stages but already commanding outsized attention as a disruptive force. These dynamics collectively shape a rapidly evolving landscape, demanding adaptability and strategic foresight from all stakeholders.
