The Digital Health Legal Landscape
About This Course
The rapid convergence of digital technologies with healthcare over the past five years (even prior to the COVID-19 pandemic) has transformed how healthcare is delivered to the masses.
The promise of digital technologies continues to transform the healthcare delivery model from a traditional model based on a “one-size-fits-all” practice of medicine that was characterized by a provider-centric approach with information silos to a new model that is focused on patient-centric treatment personalization with high data accessibility and utilization. The result is a highly personalized healthcare system that is focused on data-driven healthcare solutions and individualized delivery of therapeutics and treatments to patients using information technologies (IT) that enable seamless integration and communication between patients, providers, payors, researchers, and health information depositories. A November 2020 report by Precedence Research published on GlobeNewsWire indicates that the global digital health market is poised to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 27.9% over the next seven years to reach approximately $833.44 billion by 2027.
