The Consulting Report is pleased to announce The Top Healthcare Consultants and Leaders of 2026.
NEW YORK, Oct. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Healthcare is getting more expensive at the same time the machinery behind it is being rebuilt. Hospital expenses rose 7.5% in 2025, more than twice the growth in hospital prices, and hospitals spent $43 billion trying to collect payment for care they had already delivered. Insurers, meanwhile, are changing how they handle prior authorization and exchange patient data as new federal requirements take effect.
In healthcare, operational mistakes can quickly reach patients. That puts consultants and industry leaders close to decisions about how care is delivered, financed, and supported. Some are helping health systems and payers rethink core operations or replace aging technology, while others are working with state agencies on Medicaid modernization. In life sciences, the work starts earlier, with decisions around R&D, commercialization, precision medicine, and where companies should invest. Across this year's group, much of the value comes from turning strategy into something organizations can actually implement.
To determine this year's list, consultants and leaders were evaluated based on depth of specialized experience, advisory impact, industry influence, and leadership within their firm. The individuals recognized here represent some of the most notable consultants working across healthcare and life sciences today. Please join us in celebrating The Top Healthcare Consultants and Leaders of 2026.
This year's awardees include Franziska Thomas (Arthur D. Little), Priya Aneja (Prophet), Andrew Aijian (DeciBio Consulting), Sanjay Subramanian (Cognizant), Abhijit Sarkar (Infosys), Dr. Ivana Knyght (Capgemini Invent), Brad Boyd (BDO USA), Christiana Voelker (3Cloud), Prashant Sareen (Tredence), and Sean Kasten (CSG Government Solutions).
