HP Presents: What’s up Doc? Empowering Patient First Care Teams on the New Frontier of Care Delivery
The 2020s mark the transition to digital-first healthcare. By 2023,
65% of patients worldwide will have accessed care through a
digital front door as healthcare providers look for better ways to
improve access, engagement, and experiences across all
services. As such, the rapid adoption of virtual reality, 3D print, telehealth,
artificial intelligence (AI), microfluidics and other innovative
technologies are enabling healthcare providers and patients to
access their information conveniently and in real time. Such digital
enabled technologies are supporting care coordination across the
care continuum, connecting providers and patients, and bringing
care to patients when and where it is needed. However, this rapid
march to digital transformation has also shone a harsh spotlight on
the digital divide in healthcare. According to the Pew Research
Center, nearly 1 in 8 Americans lives in poverty, with low-income
individuals having lower rates of smartphone ownership (71%),
home broadband access (59%), Internet use (82%), and basic
digital literacy (53%).
Listen in as Fran Ayalasomayajula, HP’s Head of Digital Strategies
and Daniel Colling, Global Head of Healthcare Solutions and
Practice talk about patient-first technology innovations ranging from
VR, 3D Print and AI to Hospital at Home, Point-of-Care Diagnostics
and Intelligent Care Coordination. In this episode, we’ll explore
what happens when such technologies are developed and
intentionally implemented with these communities in mind. This will
be an engaging discussion on the new frontier of care delivery, one
that brings all providers and patients together and has a positive
impact on patient outcomes.
