Today in America, electronic health records (EHRs) are implemented in most physician offices and virtually all hospitals.
But another patient side-effect of COVID-19 has been the digital transformation of many patients , documented by data gathered by Rock Health and Stanford Center for DigitalHealth and analyzed in their latest report explaining how the public health crisis accelerated digitalhealth “beyond its years,” noted in the title of the report.

Furthermore, digitalhealth tools such as wearable devices and mobilehealth apps enable patients to take a more active role in their health and wellness.
2018 DigitalHealth Prediction 2: Voice technology will be the first step to personalising pharma. By the end of the year we will see the use of Virtual Assistants by patients to help interact with their healthdata and "transact" via voice technology to order repeat prescriptions, pain management and medication requests.
The digitalhealth presence at CES 2020 is the fastest-growing segment of consumer technologies at the Show this year, increasing by 25% over 2019.

Data is the bread and butter of the digitalhealth industry. The end result is a new level of data quality that is unprecedented in the field of healthcare data. We call it the “holy grail” of data: longitudinal, linked, and live. The following is a guest article by Guy Tish, Co-Founder and CTO at Briya.
Exec Summary: DigitalHealth is a subset of Healthtech. DigitalHealth focuses on the individual patient, while Healthtech focuses on the entire healthcare ecosystem. Wearable devices: These are devices that are worn on the body and can track healthdata such as heart rate, sleep, and activity levels.
But the coronavirus era also saw broadband households spending more on connecting health devices, with 42% of U.S. consumers owning digitalhealth tech compared with 33% in 2015, according to research discussed in Supporting Today’s Connected Consumer from Parks Associates. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic drove U.S.
Two approaches quantified in this year’s KFF survey are the use of lower-cost settings, such as retail clinics and telehealth, as well as workers generating healthdata shared via mobile apps and wearable technology. Adoption of wearable tech and mobilehealth apps in companies’ wellness programs is expanding.
I leave you with one proviso which could be a barrier to patients engaging with digitizedhealth information: in the wake of Facebook/Cambridge Analytica, there is a wake-up call for consumers to become more mindful about the security of their personal data online.
Wearable devices: These are devices that are worn on the body and can track healthdata such as heart rate, sleep, and activity levels. Digitalhealth: This refers to the use of technology to deliver healthcare services remotely. What is the difference between DigitalHealth and Healthtech?
By providing increased visibility of personal healthdata and access to richer information on patient and consumer health, these advancements are leading us towards a convergence of individuals, new information and insights, technology and increased connectivity to optimise personal health care and outcomes. Telemedicine.
At #HIMSS18, we will see the usual health IT suspects in the mix this year with newer entrants who are opening up healthdata to better flow and liquidity across data siloes.
