In this episode, we share highlights from a recent Strategy Catalyst webinar where Liz Jones, Research Director, walked strategy leaders through three disruptors reshaping service lines in 2026 and tested a few intentionally provocative predictions. We cover why payvider M&A slowdowns don't mean reduced threat, what the PE retreat from care delivery means for acquisition timing, and why distributors—the disruptor that worried this group least—might deserve more attention.
