5 Healthcare Technology Trends which will rock the World !
1. TeleHealth
Telehealth is already being pursued by a lot of companies aggressively and the market is on a steady rise with more and more users going in for the same as it saves considerable time and money. People from rural areas could bring in a substantial revenue for TeleHealth Care companies as users in such areas face a problem of having access to quality Healthcare facilities With feature-rich mobile phone hitting the market, its a matter of time when one and all would be using it for accessing quality healthcare at the touch of a button to take care of routine Health Care, and the Hospitals too are in line to roll out such facilities for the benefit of the Users.
2.Fool-Proof Security for Exchange of Data
Telehealth could mean extensive data being exchanged between the caregiver (Mostly the Doctors)and caretaker resulting in massive data which could be at risk of being stolen for inappropriate use. This could mean good business for providers of Data Security and the companies in this business could rake in the moolah to keep the cyber criminals at Bay.
Hospitals and Small practices, as well as the companies involved in the process of Healthcare delivery, will have to spend enormous amounts to keep their data safe and also ward of the cyber threats which is increasingly becoming the norm of the day.
3. Wearable Technology
Already a host of players are into this arena and are vying with each other to offer as many features to the users as possible.

It has steadily been on the up since the completion of the Human Genome Project, which mapped the order of DNA in a human genome. This helped scientists and healthcare professionals understand that each person’s genetic information is unique, and therefore healthcare should be tailored to the individual.
“As gene sequencing becomes cheaper and affordable will lead to more individual based genetic testing to find out which medicines have the best chance of working for a specific patient,”
