Physicians and patients have embraced medical technology (MedTech) like never before, as the industry looks to improve patient care management at a time when the human touch is potentially more damaging than healing.
Healthcare is an industry driven by emerging technologies such as telemedicine, smart wearable devices, and EHR (electronic health records) that provide better access to health data and help patients and physicians communicate.
Technology has long been used to fight back against healthcare challenges. But as hospital visits become potential health hazards due to COVID-19 and patients and physicians look to communicate online, a bright spotlight is now on telemedicine solutions.
Healthcare’s technological revolution has gone into overdrive, as healthcare embraces big data and other data management technologies with the hope of overcoming treatment obstacles during the pandemic and preventing another pandemic.
