Chronic Disease: Exacerbating the Pandemic
Rick Berke, Susan Bailey, Garth Graham, Jaana Remes, Brooks Tingle
A high-level panel convened by the American Medical Association addresses a dual crisis where the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated chronic disease management and highlighted severe racial health disparities. Industry leaders from CVS Health, John Hancock, and academia propose systemic reforms including the "Time for Care" initiative, insurance models that actively incentivize preventative behaviors, and the urgent need for disaggregated health data to dismantle structural inequities. The discussion emphasizes a permanent shift toward telemedicine and consumer empowerment strategies designed to reverse dangerous trends in delayed medical care while framing public health investment as a critical driver of global economic recovery.

The Next Urban Revolution: Reimagining Cities for an Aging Population
Nora Super, James Anderson, Julián Castro, Thomas Lantzsch, Jaana Remes, Jim Anderson, Tom Lanch, Jana, David Rockefeller Jr., Quinn, Yana Shih, Tom Hanksman Jr.
Demographic shifts project a global surge in the senior population that is reshaping urban dynamics, housing models, and consumption patterns while exposing gaps in economic security for aging communities. Cities like Tokyo, Los Angeles, and Singapore are responding with innovative multigenerational housing, autonomous mobility solutions, and talent recruitment programs to maintain independence and address infrastructure needs. Experts recommend a strategic pivot from viewing aging as a vulnerability to an asset-based approach that leverages the continued productivity of retirees through targeted policy, public-private innovation, and data-driven resource allocation.
