Analysts Predict How COVID-19 Will Change Health Care

Besides all the other ways it’s changing American life, the COVID-19 pandemic is sure to have a major impact on how the health care industry does business going forward, equities analysts said during a March 31 panel discussion hosted by the USC-Brookings Schaeffer Initiative for Health Policy.

The 24th Wall Street Comes to Washington Health Care Roundtable was held virtually this year in accordance with social distancing guidelines aimed at slowing the spread of COVID-19, the disease caused by the new coronavirus that emerged in China in late 2019 and then spread throughout the world. As of press time, complications from the virus had killed more than 6,000 people in the U.S. and more than 54,000 globally.
