Digital Transformation of Medical Devices
Recent advances in technology, especially the advent of connected devices, has reshaped the medical device industry, known as MedTech.
The increasing adoption of connected devices and pandemic Covid-19 have accelerated the use of digital healthcare services worldwide. Smart interconnected devices have also enabled new business models through a cloud-based service delivery platform.
As a result, medical devices have evolved with new features built on a more robust network infrastructure and advanced computing in order to reduce the gap between the demand for medical facilities and the availability of physicians and hospital care at affordable costs. For instance, modern devices will utilize technological enhancements to assimilate, aggregate and process data through multiple touch points and deliver services to a much larger base at a fraction of cost.
