Investment trends in digital health are shifting from consumer wellness applications to clinically driven solutions that engage consumers and improve health outcomes. This reflects the convergence of technologies that drive behavioral changes to lower healthcare costs. Specifically, financing is increasingly focused on disease management and remote patient monitoring rather than fitness and wellness. Consumer-facing companies are adapting by partnering with medical institutions on clinical studies, acquiring other companies, and developing features to gather clinical data.

TechTalks | Digital Transformation in Healthcare: Opportunities and Trendsrmcsoft
Of all the industries out there, healthcare has perhaps the most to gain from digital transformation. Technology can decrease wait times, reduce medical errors and increase collaboration across providers — all of which helps people find their way to better health and healthcare businesses achieve a better bottom line.
The problem is, healthcare has struggled more than pretty much any other industry out there to keep up with the times. Why is that? How do we buck the trend and begin to embrace the tremendous opportunity of digital transformation in healthcare? And who out there is already doing it really, really well?
RMCSoft and Advent Coworking brought together a panel of experts to dig into all of that at their TechTalks event on Tuesday, Jan. 22.
This fascinating conversation highlighted not only the challenges facing health care in the digital age, but also ideas and vision for a path forward.

Trends in Digital Health and why you should careMichael Weber
Driven by demographic change, rising costs in the healthcare system and growing customer demands for patient-centered tools, the relevance of innovative Digital Health solutions is constantly growing. While many technologies are available on the market, there is still a lack of comprehensive solutions that support the patient across all his medical conditions and provide an integrated user experience throughout the patient's everyday life. Future Digital Health solutions will not only have to cross-link patient data across different devices and applications in order to enable better medical decisions, but also to create user experiences that address the patients' needs and help them to establish self-sustaining behaviors towards a healthier lifestyle.

There is increasing awareness that seniors represent a diverse group ranging in age, ability, and needs. As a result, senior care solutions are not “one size fits all” – an important lesson as innovators aim to scale solutions. Solutions geared towards seniors must be easy-to-use and solve a specific problem. This helps ensure technology actually improves quality of life and wellbeing, and does not become a nuisance. Ideally, developing senior care solutions should involve various stakeholders including clinicians, designers, and seniors themselves. Mass market products aimed at improving convenience and livability (e.g., Blue Apron, Amazon’s Alexa) have the opportunity to enable independent living. However, large companies need to better market their products to seniors and their caregivers. Venture capitalists are realizing that seniors represent a significant opportunity, but usually tend to invest in solutions that have a broader impact across any one single population or disease state (with some exception).

Contents include Summary, Market Drivers, Investment Trends, Sector Highlights (AI, Health IT, Omics, telehealth, digital therapeutics, mental health, medical devices, digital health, etc). Global healthcare investment rose for the seventh consecutive quarter. European investment nearly doubled. A flood of new entrants pushed early-stage deal share
above 50%. M&A activity persisted. The top healthcare deals in the quarter (by deal size) went to companies working in life sciences. The SPAC frenzy continued within digital health. Eleven healthcare startups joined the unicorn club during

Beyond product offerings, it also positions Medtech companies to help hospitals and health systems transition to the future of health through services.
The term “digital twin” refers to the digital version of a physical device or process. By bridging the physical and the virtual worlds, data is transmitted seamlessly allowing the virtual entity to exist simultaneously with the physical device or process. Digital twins are emerging as virtual test beds for
possible solutions before they implement physical devices. These computer-based models are fed individual and population data and mimic the electrical and physical properties of an object.
Medical device companies are using this technology to simulate how their devices are being used in the
clinical setting.
In our view of the future of health, radically interoperable data is likely to play a huge role in transforming health care. Data from medical technologies such as wearables, remote monitors, and
sensors will be standardized, stored, updated, and aggregated with other sources of information such as social media platforms, retailers, and electronic health records.
The combined data will create a complete personal profile that physicians and health systems can use to help ensure that

Customer Journey Analytics: Cracking the Patient Engagement Challenge for PayersHealth Catalyst
Customer journey analytics uses machine learning and big data to track and analyze when and through what channels customers interact with an organization, with an aim to influence behavior (e.g., buying behaviors among retail customers). Similarly, healthcare organizations want to influence health-related behaviors, such a taking medication as prescribed and not smoking, to improve outcomes and lower the cost of care. In a partnership with an analytics services provider, a payer organization is leveraging customer journey analytics among healthcare consumers to identify the best opportunities and channels for patient outreach. With this analytics-driven engagement strategy, the payer has found an opportunity to significantly improve patient engagement—a predicted overall increase from 18 percent to 31 percent.

Even though EHRs have replaced paper health records aiming to make data management more convenient, managing health records is still an apprehension for patients. With the introduction of BlueButton 2.0, patients will have access to 4 years of their health record. This gives the patients more confidence in their health care and make data more comprehensive and easily accessible. By facilitating access to patient health history, it has the potential to drive down Medicare spending and improve health outcomes.

A.Schumacher (2017) Blockchain & Healthcare: A Strategy GuideGalen Growth
The healthcare industry needs a revolution – and it is here now. Trusted and open R&D processes, auditable & secure transactions between parties, authenticated by mass collaboration and powered by collective self-interest, rather than by fewer and fewer pharmaceutical giants motivated by profit alone. This healthcare ecosystem is immune to exorbitant drug prices, tampering, fraud, or political control. The name of the technology that makes all this happen is blockchain, a tool that will fundamentally change the healthcare sector. Blockchain will prove to be indispensable in building a global precision-medicine ecosystem that optimally connects patients, clinicians, researchers, insurers and clinical laboratories to one another.
The number of startups entering the healthcare AI space has increased in recent years, with over 50 companies raising their first equity rounds since January 2015. Deals to healthcare-focused AI startups went up from less than 20 in 2012 to nearly 70 in 2016.

Key Success Factors for Consumer-Centric Disease Management:
Expertise in Both Healthcare and Technology | Patient-Centric Design
Operating in the Clinical Space
Consumer health companies need to develop sound business models because
the patient is not the only customer – the payer is also the customer.

Advice to Entrepreneurs
• Spend time with your consumers: figure out their pain points and
understand their core problems. And whether you can solve their
problems with technology alone or if you need to become a provider.
• Know who your customers are and what they are willing to pay for.
