Patient-centered care is undergoing a paradigm shift as consumers flock toward wearable gadgets, home monitoring tools, and m-health applications. According to one recent research, 97.6 million wearables are being shipped to customers each year, resulting in a $17 billion industry for smartwatches, fitness trackers, and other data-generating gadgets.
As these gadgets result in creating a vast amount of data, electronic health record producers are exploring methods to incorporate patient-generated health data (PGHD) into their systems in order to alleviate provider concerns about how this massive amount of data would fit into their workflow.
Another important advancement in healthcare analytics is data scienceas- a-service. Similar to how scientists collect and analyze health data to find symptoms and identify diseases, doctors can track the clinical course of patients with a confirmed diagnosis. Personalized treatment and informed care, enabled by technology, can lead to predictable medical outcomes.
