Consumerizing and Personalizing Connected Health

As consumers increasingly seek out ways to improve their health or manage chronic conditions, they are turning to technology for solutions.  Activity trackers, sensors, smartphones and apps, as well as other types of devices -- from sleep monitors to connected weight scales -- are becoming pervasive.

Research has proven that connected health tools and programs are most effective when personalized to an individual's lifestyle or goals. 

Personal connected health tools and programs are helping individuals better self-manage their health and wellness, and empowering patients to become more in control of chronic conditions. This technology is also providing important data and insights needed to improve clinical outcomes and patient and caregiver experiences, while reducing costs. Data from wearables, health monitoring devices and mobile apps are powering personalized approaches to remote monitoring, telemedicine, preventative wellness and analytics.

It's not just about keeping pace, but charting the right course for success.
