With a complex stakeholder and policy landscape, the constantly evolving field of healthcare presents a number of specific communication challenges. Change in the sector is driven by a number of factors including the ageing population, increasing patient expectations, cost containment measures from payers, new regulatory initiatives, and the growing needs of the developing world. The diversity of these challenges requires an integrated communications response.
