According to Deloitte (2019) “Digital technologies are supporting health systems’ efforts to
transition to new models of patient-centered care and helping them develop “smart health”
approaches to increase access and affordability, improve quality, and lower costs. New
technologies are helping with diagnosis and treatment; helping with speed, quality, and
accuracy; and improving the patient experience.” (the U.S. and Global Health Care Industry
Outlook)While we can likely agree with the statement above, we also know this
transformation inevitably comes with many challenges for both healthcare providers and
consumers. Resistance to change is one of the biggest challenges. With emerging
technologies, customer experience and exposure to information technology are
increasing. The explosion of patient portals, portable technology, self-monitoring wearable
devices, etc.… has created a more aware, assertive, and educated patient. How you feel
about these changes will greatly impact the success you have with it. Challenges are many,
and reflection upon your feelings is vital.Assess the challenges of technological advances in
