The current healthcare system is often compared to the 19th-century cottage industry. The US healthcare delivery system is described as expensive, fragmented, highly decentralized and poorly organized. Why has a sector that can be traced back to the medieval era still be so inefficient? How is Information and Communication Technology (ICT) driving the sector towards better care through prevention? What are the key challenges faced by the sector today?
I come from a healthcare background and I have always been interested in the influence ICT has on healthcare. This blog aims to provide an insight into this complex sector and analyze how ICT is changing the healthcare sector.
