Abstract

The future of healthcare delivery is undergoing significant transformation. Some key trends include: Hyper-Personalization and Digitization, Patient-Centric Care, Virtual and Ambulatory Care, Value-Based and Risk-Bearing Models, and Transparent and Interoperable Systems. The future of healthcare services lies in personalized, convenient, and technology-driven models that prioritize patient needs and adapt to changing consumer preferences. Smart and Connected Health (SCH) is a viable solution for the prevalent healthcare challenges. It refers to the solutions or systems for digital healthcare that are fully connected and can operate remotely. It can reshape the course of healthcare to be more strategic, preventive, and custom-designed, making it more effective with value-added services. Technology enables patient centricity in three ways: accessibility through virtual health, building an experience around the patient round the clock via continuous remote care, and accumulating massive amounts of data to drive proactive care. Emergency departments are universally stressed due to capacity, staffing, and resource limitations. Emergency care providers have to be available for both life-threatening conditions and immediate care generally. Advanced technologies with quality network services enable individuals to improve healthcare delivery and make it available to more and more people. As a healthcare experience, patient centricity is meant to be convenient, transparent, and personalized, where consumers expect to be treated as whole people with individualized needs. Consumers are also demanding greater access to healthcare and a more seamless experience. While challenges to healthcare affordability and access, and industry economics abound, so too do opportunities for rapid, at-scale innovation to improve the future of care. Future focus should be transformational change in health care delivery.
