Digital Lifeline | Predictions for 2025
A prediction of 2025 by Doug Mirsky, Ph.D., vice president of healthcare delivery at Digital Medicine Society.
There are 350,000 digital health software products (DHSPs) available today, with that number only growing — and more than 6,000 hospitals in the U.S. trying to figure out how to navigate through this massive market problem.
Mirsky
Although most larger hospitals and systems have digital health teams and the equivalent of a chief digital officer to resource how to approach this market to efficiently adopt those products that best fit their needs, most smaller hospitals will come to rely upon third-party evaluations to keep pace. For those smaller hospitals, quickly getting to a place of quality and trust with DHSPs will be a lifeline to supporting care in their communities and continuing to deliver to those patients in need while maintaining financial stability and supporting staffing challenges.
