In this post, I’ll share three organizations’ visions for health/care at home, streamlined, convenient, and do-able: via Samsung, Withings, and Panasonic. Each of these companies exhibited and discussed their corporate visions for connectedhealth at home.
People w3re already adopting digital tech for health before the pandemic began; Apple and Xiaomi dominated market shares for wearable tech globally, and mobile apps for health, wellness, and fitness approached 40,000 available in app stores. Our homes emerged as our health hubs in the #StayHome and quarantine times.
Evidence supporting the use of digital health tools if growing, tracked in Digital Health Trends 2021: Innovation, Evidence, Regulation, and Adoption from IQVIA Institute for Human Data Science. Once upon a time in 2015, exercise and fitness comprised nearly one-half of the digital health categories.
In my own vision of the retail home health/care ecosystem, these five categories can blur and combinations can serve the consumer’s health at home and on-the-move (for truly mobile health, not just “mHealth” via phone apps).
Family and friends dropped from 5th place to seventh, product labels fell from 7th to 8th place in trust, and Fitness trainers or coaches declined from 8th place to 10th — perhaps a sign that we were less dependent on the traditional in-person fitness trainer in the physically-distanced pandemic compared with our 2020 normal exercise routines.
You’ve heard of food-as-medicine and exercise-as-medicine. Now we see the emergence of telecomms-as-medicine — or more specifically, a driver of health, access, and empowerment.
That timing is important because the coronavirus re-shaped how people perceived public and individual health, and the growing opportunity to adopt digital health tools for contactless care and care at-home and closer-to-home. Looking to what people would like to track, blood pressure is first most in demand (for 37% of U.S.
The ConnectedHealth Conference and its predecessor events, the Partners HealthCare’s ConnectedHealth Symposium and the Personal ConnectedHealth Alliance’s ConnectedHealth Conference (a HIMSS event), aim to frame digital health advancements in the context of improving clinical care delivery as well as personal engagement.
As the Center for ConnectedHealth Policy (CCHP) notes, different telehealth modalities include: Live video: referred to as “synchronous” format and uses live interaction between two parties over video. Remote patient monitoring (RPM): involves the remote monitoring of patients’ health and medical data over secure electronic means.
I have followed this area closely for years – my first real startup attempt was a prescribable app platform in the early days of mHealth ( RxApps ) – but to date, none have actually found a successful business model.
Fitness tracks three different metrics (sitting vs standing, movement, exercise), while Workout enables setting specific goals for exercise. Data are passively sent to the Health App in the iPhone, enabling users to keep a log of their health activity.
60 percent of US adults claim to track their weight, diet, or exercise routine, according to the Pew Research Center’s data. At first glance, this is a no-brainer, as we’ve been hearing the clarion calls for such inputs for the better part of the last decade.
The agenda for that session looks like a blur between HIMSS, Health 2.0, ConnectedHealth and the ATA Conference – covering digital health and value-based care, reimbursement, home care, and clinician/technology partnerships. This is something that we forecasters would have put in the “wild card” category nine years ago.
It’s also interesting to see people re-defining what constitutes “exercise” and fitness routines: say, sex and household chores (with over 70% of consumers calling each of these activities workouts. Sidebar: cozy cardio was popularized on (of course) TikTok by Hope Zuckerbrow.
