Why is digital health important? The goals of digital health are complex and diverse – prevention of disease, reduction in healthcare costs, customization of medicines as per patient requirements, and assistance with monitoring and managing chronic conditions. In healthcare, these goals stand to benefit both healthcare providers and their patients. Under its umbrella, digital health includes mobile health (mHealth) apps, electronic health records (EHRs), electronic medical records (EMRs), wearable devices, telehealth and telemedicine, as well as personalized medicine. Digital health refers to the usage of digital technologies to enable universal healthcare access, improve healthcare quality or outcomes, and enhance the health, physical and emotional well-being of populations. Digital health technologies use computing platforms, connectivity, software, and sensors for healthcare and related uses. These technologies span a wide range of uses, from applications in general wellness to applications as a medical device. Checkout this PPT to learn in detail.
