mHealth scorecard methodology• Provides an overview of the countries surveyed and the maturity of their mHealth market through four key pillars. Each pillar is further divided into eight dimensions to support the findings• Survey questions are grouped into the eight dimensions• Each country receives a score per pillar and dimension, and an overall score Overall Score - Maturity of the market Four Pillars 2. Regulatory, 1. Awareness and reimbursement and 3. Technology 4. Impact openness for mHealth business model Eight Dimensions 1.1 Encouraging 2.1 Reimbursement 3.1 Access and 4.1 Institutional environment and business model security 2.2 Encouraging 1.2 Current use of 3.2 Interoperability 4.2 Healthcare system regulatory and legal mHealth environmentPwC Source: PwC analysis based on EIU research, 2012 7

The same could be said of the UK. Reasons may be due to physicians who are already using mHealth are more aware of its possible drawbacksPwC Source: PwC analysis based on EIU research, 2012 10

For example, 92% of physicians in India expected a noticeable effect of mHealth in 3 years. In Denmark, only 80% believe this is the case • The impact on healthcare can be illustrated by the following figure: 52% of physicians in India believe the widespread adoption of mHealth is inevitable, vs. 34% in DenmarkPwC Source: PwC analysis based on EIU research, 2012 13
