HLTH 2024 Day 2 Recap: Deep Dives, Digital Health, and Disruption

Day 2 of HLTH 2024 did not disappoint:)The energy is high, and the conversations are even more insightful as we dive deeper into the future of healthcare. Here’s a quick overview of the key moments and takeaways from today:

Current Trends and Future Potential: The day kicked off with a strong focus on digital health innovation, highlighting its transformative role in patient care. One of the standout sessions was “Tech Meets Therapy,” which explored how digital therapeutics and virtual care platforms are improving access to healthcare, especially for underserved populations. The session emphasized how telemedicine is reducing costs and enhancing care quality by making it easier for patients to connect with providers. Real-world examples of remote monitoring for chronic disease management were especially impressive, signaling immense growth potential in this space.

Revolutionizing Primary Care: Primary care is undergoing significant changes, and today’s discussions spotlighted the future of this vital healthcare sector. The integration of AI into primary care and emerging models like concierge medicine were key themes, showcasing how healthcare is becoming more personalized, efficient, and patient-centered. This session shed light on how human expertise and machine learning are reshaping the patient experience. For anyone interested in the evolution of primary care, this was a must-attend.

Empowering Patients Through Data: The theme of patient empowerment also took center stage, with a session on how patients are gaining more control over their health data. As the consumerization of healthcare grows, discussions focused on interoperability, blockchain's role in secure data sharing, and how these trends are driving patient-centric innovation. It’s clear that the future of healthcare is headed toward more transparency and patient control, creating exciting opportunities for companies in this space.

The connections just keep getting better. I had approximately 30 incredible meetings today with fellow healthcare innovators who are as passionate as I am about driving change. It’s amazing to see so many people from diverse industries—technology, insurance, and pharma— all working toward the common goal of improving healthcare.

What’s Coming Up? Tomorrow promises more engaging sessions on AI applications in healthcare and the future of digital therapeutics. I’m particularly excited about the panels focusing on mental health tech, as it’s a space that’s rapidly gaining attention. Stay tuned for more updates.

I had a fantastic time at the Surescripts & ScaleHealth Reception on Monday, October 21, from 6:00–8:00 PM at Flight Club in Las Vegas. ScaleHealth & Surescripts hosted a wonderful evening filled with networking, delicious food, and great fun. It was an amazing opportunity to connect with industry professionals, exchange insights, and create valuable relationships. If you missed it, be sure to RSVP next time—this was definitely a night to remember!
