The development of the hospital, as an institution, has been driven by two interrelated forces; changes in demand for health care, in particular changing patterns of disease, and changing supply of health care, largely the development of new technology. An understanding of how these might change in the future provides insights into the way that the hospital should respond. The main implications are that the future hospital must be designed in a way that embraces flexibility and must be much better integrated with the rest of the health care system. The difficulty of doing so should not be underestimated.
