Social as Motivational Force
Sticking to a healthcare regime is not easy, which is why there are support groups for nearly

Since at least 1982, support groups have sprung up online in the form of niche social
networks, forums and blogs.

Patents on emotional sensors to detect patient’s moods, Wireless
weight scale, wireless glucometer, cancer detection.
Administrative function applications are not nearly as popular as medical reference
apps and if Manhattan’s prediction is true, then there is still a big opportunity to provide admin
related apps to healthcare professionals through app stores.

In late 2010, John Moore of the Chilmark Research blog
heralded mobile technology as a looming
“disruptive” force in modern healthcare.
“And with disruption, opportunity blooms”
So much opportunity is now on the horizon in 2011 that Chilmark estimates that the enterprise
mHealth market will top $1.7 billion within three years.
