Over the course of 2018 and 2019, the Spanish Society of Internal Medicine carried out a project called "The Future Hospital." Based on cumulative knowledge on the Spanish National Health System, this project seeks to transfer the observations on the organization of healthcare in future hospitals made by the Royal College of Physicians in the United Kingdom to the context of the Spanish healthcare system. The project's participants included numerous scientific and medical societies, professional associations in the health sector, and patient associations. This aim of this article is to highlight, in 10 points, predictions that arose from this project that we consider to be the most relevant, reserving the last point for the challenges for the field of internal medicine that can be surmised from these proposals.
