Worldwide technology and its promise have moved up the healthcare agenda. The interest is understandable; increasingly ubiquitous and powerful mobile technology holds the potential to address long standing issues in healthcare provision. However in a field with few proven business models and where the transformational change required is challenging, this technology driven hype may lead to expensive failures. The diversity of stakeholders and their interests makes an evolving landscape even more complex, combined with the fact the patient’s voice is loud and getting louder.
The key to success is solutions, not technology. During this event we will provide an international and local perspective on mHealth including:
-
Mobile Health – what is it and where do I get started?
-
International best practice - How is mHealth enabling better patient outcomes and improved efficiency and effectiveness?
-
How can the (state or federal government) leverage mHealth to enhance current eHealth programs and their adoption by patients and providers?
