Making Digital Health Equitable.

Most agree that the current healthcare system is broken. Fortunately, technology is increasing at an exponential rate and provides a solution for the future. Digital Health is an integrator concept that has the potential to take advantage of technological advantages. Digital Health converges health, healthcare, research, and everyday life. It includes technologies, platforms, and systems that engage consumers in all aspects of life. It makes health and healthcare be people-centered and personalized. Digital health requires total interoperability - standards, common data elements, and the integration of data from all sources. It demands data sharing. Digital Health brings together a wide range of stakeholders for similar goals using the same resources. Digital Health uses mobile devices and wearable sensors and uses Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to handle the vast amount of data Digital Health engages. Finally, Digital Health has the potential to open the gap between the different social and economic classes that must be addressed.
