We’re living in the most data-rich era in healthcare history, yet outcomes remain stubbornly poor.
Why? Because while data is everywhere, actionable intelligence is not.
Today, the Global Impact Committee (GIC) has released its landmark report, The Knowledge Crisis, outlining a Manifesto for Reform that challenges governments, regulators, and healthcare leaders to rethink how we collect, interpret, and act on health data.
The GIC is an independent advisory board that supports Beamtree’s mission to mobilise the power of data for a healthier, happier world. It provides expert advice on strategies and policies, promotes best practice and innovation in health data, and helps ensure Beamtree remains at the forefront of global health system transformation.
The report makes a compelling case for urgent change, addressing:
- The dangerous gap between data and decision-making
- How to overcome systemic inertia and build cultures of clinical governance
- The need for standardisation, transparency, and patient empowerment
- The opportunity to bridge inequality through intelligent, integrated systems
“This report marks a pivotal moment for global healthcare. We can no longer afford to collect data without turning it into action. The Knowledge Crisis is a powerful reminder that intelligent systems, transparency, and empowered clinicians are the key to improving outcomes, not more dashboards or disconnected data. It’s time to rethink how we use what we already have. I encourage every healthcare leader, policymaker and clinician to read this report and consider how we can turn insight into action – together.”
– Marek Stepniak, CEO, Beamtree
“The failure to exploit data is the biggest failure in modern healthcare.”
