What is Consumer Powered Healthcare?

Find out in the New Issue of Impact Magazine

The international community has some pretty audacious goals. And, it’s clear that we won’t meet them doing business as usual. To achieve universal health coverage we’ll need to reimagine healthcare.

This special issue of Impact looks at power —more specifically—how to shift power where it belongs for greater health impact. It’s time we treat a “beneficiary” more like a consumer — engage her in program design and wherever possible bring care to her front door. Together with donors, policy leaders, corporate partners, philanthropists and technical experts, PSI and our partners explore how to put more care and control directly in consumers’ hands.

Find out what thought leaders like PEPFAR’s Ambassador Deborah Birx, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s Chris Elias, Getrude Ncube of Zimbabwe’s Ministry of Child Health and Welfare, World Health Organization’s Dr. Venkatraman Chandra-Mouli and Pfizer’s Michael Goettler have to say about the impact a shift to Consumer Powered Healthcare can have.
