The gradual aging of the global population makes it a near-certainty that worldwide spending on healthcare will grow for decades to come, so it makes sense for every investor to consider devoting a portion of his or her portfolio to the sector. However, with an increase in political attention on the space, many investors might be hesitant to invest since they don't want to have to constantly monitor the headlines for thesis-changing developments.
Knowing that, we reached out to a team of our Motley Fool healthcare contributors and asked them to highlight a healthcare stock they think doesn't require babysitting. Read below to see what they said: Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) is likely to be the ultimate healthcare stock that doesn't require constant attention since it's so big and so well diversified that its future isn't overly dependent on any one part of the healthcare space. Global healthcare company Roche Holdings (NASDAQOTH:RHHBY) is a stock you can buy right now and don't have to babysit. One healthcare stock that you can consider adding to your portfolio and pay little worry toward is animal health giant Zoetis (NYSE:ZTS).
