Digital Health An Overview

Digital health is an emerging area at the intersection of healthcare and digital technologies. It covers technologies such as mobile health, telemedicine, big data, genomics, artificial intelligence, blockchain, and wearable devices that are used to improve access to healthcare, reduce the cost of care, and improve the quality of patient care. A digital based healthcare system is desperately needed. Deploying digital health services that fit into existing healthcare systems is crucial to improve their performance, accessibility, comfort, and efficiency. All citizens have a right to digital healthcare because it is better, more sustainable, and empowering. For this reason, the digital healthcare is a booming industry. The future of digital health continues to look bright, as long as policy makers, privacy experts, and the private sector can work together to address key issues that limit its potential impact.
