The promise of the new year is a good time to consider the past year and look forward to what trends are developing. 

There are a number of trends I could comment upon, but three come to the forefront:
(1) Wal-Mart potentially entering the delivery of primary care physician services directly to consumers.
(2) Jawbone staking a claim in the mobile health (mhealth) space with the UP.
(3) BetterWorks platform that provides all employees with "perks."
