Enabling New Virtual Care Models by Creating the Clinical Grade Digital Health Tools they Demand Healthcare delivery has dramatically changed over the last 3 years, with telemedicine, remote patient monitoring, hospital at home, asynchronous care, and even virtual first. But the digital health tools like the Fitbit and Apple Watch, have not kept up, being initially designed for the consumer market. These new healthcare care models need more clinical grade tools to meet the digital health demands that have the same rigor of quality, reliability, and trust as typical clinical grade medtech. Be sure to join us with some leaders in new care models and digital tools to discuss this urgent market need for clinical grade digital health tools.
