The digital technology world has ushered in an era of progress and promise featuring healthcare technologies that have the potential to improve health, expand access, and increase efficiency. Whether through apps that aim to address mental health needs, wearables that monitor chronic conditions, or AI that provides health advice to patients and clinicians, technology promises to revolutionize patient care.
