A Note From Brian Kelly, Head of PNC Healthcare

Brian Kelly

As we close out the first quarter of 2026, our PNC Healthcare team is closely monitoring the evolving healthcare landscape. The sector enters the new year amid continued policy adjustments following last year’s tax and budget legislation, with providers and payers preparing for reimbursement changes that are expected to influence operating models across the industry.

Healthcare organizations are still contending with labor challenges, rising patient acuity, and ongoing shifts in care delivery. At the same time, AI adoption has become a strategic imperative, as stakeholders look to streamline workflows and enhance decision‑making. Industry headwinds have our clients managing their balance sheet, including liquidity and investment management, to prepare and adjust their operating models.

Against this backdrop, the need for thoughtful advisory support has never been greater. Our team remains committed to helping clients navigate these challenges and position themselves for sustainable success in the year ahead.

Within this newsletter we cover:

  • How policy changes, AI, rising costs and M&A are expected to define the healthcare industry
  • How our experienced Healthcare Asset Management Group works with organizations to create investment solutions
  • Key financial trends in the current healthcare landscape
