As the need for a more efficient means for delivering healthcare continues to grow the mHealth industry responds by developing mobile devices and apps that connect doctors with patients. There is no question that care providers utilize mHealth devices and applications and patients are beginning to see the value in monitoring their own health.
Capital investment in mHealth technologies continues to surge as consumer driven healthcare advances. Despite the vitality of the market, questions regarding regulation, compliance and reimbursement continue to plague the industry.
In this session panelists will discuss:
- Which types of technology are receiving funding

- Seeking alternative funding sources
- mHealth market projections
