What will healthcare look like? And how will our roles change as healthcare goes increasingly digital? Which digital health trends are worthy of attention and which will prove to be just hype?

They involve pairing a pharmacological product with a digital health service as a package for the patient, rather than selling the product as-is.

Traditionally, this can represent several years if not decades-long processes. To accelerate these in an effective manner, companies could look at the path taken by manufacturers of portable ECG monitors like \u003Ca rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.alivecor.com\u002F\" target=\"_blank\">AliveCor\u003C\u002Fa>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Since releasing its first FDA-approved portable ECG device in 2012, the company has pushed to have its devices tested in clinical trials while refining their design.
