BIP Spring 2025

NABIP Engagement

What excites you about the future of healthcare? I’m excited to see how this momentum empowers individuals to make informed decisions and ultimately leads to better outcomes and more accountability across the system. “ providers, pharmacists and community leaders will be aligned like never before, ensuring care is personal, proactive and built around the unique needs of individuals. “ We’re at an inflection point where transparency and access to data are forcing the industry to respond in ways that will create a more personalized, patient-centered experience. With AI, precision medicine and local care models, people will have the knowledge, tools and support to confidently navigate their health on their own terms. Brokers, agents,
