In economic terms, a monopoly means, quite literally, one seller. By this definition, Epic’s 36% market share of U.S. hospitals is far from meeting the monopoly threshold. Oracle, Cerner, athenahealth, MEDITECH, and eClinicalWorks are just a handful of the hundreds of vendors selling EHR software to healthcare providers, with a number of well-funded new entrants (Elation Health, Canvas Medical, and Healthie) collectively raising nearly $100M in the past 18 months to bring modern technology approaches to ambulatory providers. While there is no hard and fast market share threshold rule, case law supports that “market share at or less than 50% is inadequate as a…

Doctors are already using unregulated artificial intelligence tools such as note-taking virtual assistants and predictive software that helps them diagnose and treat diseases. Government has slow-walked regulation of the fast-moving technology because the funding and staffing challenges facing agencies like the Food and Drug Administration in writing and enforcing rules are so vast. It’s unlikely they will catch up any time soon. That means the AI rollout in health care is becoming a high-stakes experiment in whether the private sector can help transform medicine safely without government watching. The cart is so far ahead of the horse, it’s like how…

The Covid-19 pandemic and its aftermath have exposed the flaws in health care delivery in the United States and many other nations, including rapidly rising costs, variable quality, and insufficient and unequal access to primary and other types of treatment. However, if retailers and health systems form solid collaborations, they could play an important role in tackling these megachallenges. While some retail-health care collaborations exist—for example, Target and Kaiser Permanente in Southern California formed in 2014—they are uncommon and have merely scratched the surface of their potential. More of these partnerships are required to radically alter how health care is…
