Digital technology now a health care mainstay

May 17, 2019
By Alfred Romann
TEL AVIV, Israel – The use of digital technologies in medical technology is rapidly moving well beyond efforts to organize data or communicate long distance.

While some of these companies are technology companies that have taken something of a back door into health care through consumer products (like the Iwatch or Fitbit that can be used to track metabolic activity or by providing technology platforms like Amazon or Microsoft), other entrants are health care companies first that use digital technology to meet health care goals.
