Cleveland, OH -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/17/2015 -- One of the most popular topics for conversation and debate within the healthcare industry in recent years has been the rising importance of the patient experience. Most recently, this was evident at the HBS Healthcare Alumni Association's annual conference in November. While there, several leading healthcare industry figures shared their thoughts on the future of the industry, and much of it concentrated on the rise of consumerism and the part that the patient experience will play in it, as patients increasingly approach healthcare facilities through consumerism. For example, Keith Pitts, who is the Vice Chairman of Tenet Health, stressed that contemporary consumers are looking for quality, service and price when they make decisions about their healthcare providers. Similarly, Josh Flum, the Executive VP of Pharmacy Services at CVS, brought up his views on how consumers will continue to have more voice, telling providers what they think or want, and voting with their feet depending on the service they receive.
