: Matthew Jung, Managing Director of Healthcare Risk Solutions, joined Insurance Insider this week for a timely discussion on emerging risks in healthcare and the mental health crisis.

Alongside Michelle Foster Earle and Robert Hilliker, and moderated by Meg Green, the panel explored what is driving demand for behavioral health services, how patient complexity and care delivery models—including telehealth—are evolving and the growing role of technology and private equity. The conversation also covered the current medical professional liability (MPL) landscape and how insurers can turn emerging risks into opportunities for innovation and differentiation.
