Consumer adoption in digital health 2016

Digital health finally reached a tipping point in 2016 as consumers adopted digital health tools at a record rate over the last 12 months. In our just-released second annual Digital Health Consumer Adoption report, based on a 4K+ person survey, we dug into the major consumer trends in healthcare technology—from consumer sentiment and adoption of digital health to consumer attitudes toward health privacy and trust. We hope it adds valuable insights to the work you're all doing.

Celebrate JPM 2017 with the who's who of digital health. Request an invite to our happy hour.
