Program Description:

The Affordable Care Act and Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Acts have stimulated a wave of change and profound innovation in healthcare that the US medical system hasn’t seen in decades. Changes in primary care and insurance are creating a new healthcare delivery marketplace.  Companies self-insuring employers are financially incentivized to keep their employees healthy.

• But what does disruptive digital health technology really mean for healthcare?
• Will digital health enable patients to get care wherever they are, reducing costs for the system as a whole?
• Will more options for care lead to lower cost and improved patient outcomes?
• Does the adoption and meaningful use of health information technology improve patient-centered care?
• What about the privacy and security concerns associated with the electronic transmission of health information?
• Can doctors see more patients in a shorter time, and therefore scale down the cost of the service through digital face-to-face interaction?
