Impact of digital technologies on healthcare?

8 converging elements:
– Wireless Sensors and Devices
– Genomics (A, C, G, T = digital)
– Social Networking
– Mobile Connectivity and Bandwidth
– Imaging
– Health Information Systems
– The Internet
– Computing Power and the Data Universe
What is Digital Health / Health 2.0?
Page 5
1. Heavy duty ERP & EHR vs light consumer
technologies (web & mobile) and web 2.0 services
(social networks)
2. Technology & data for providers versus technology
& data for consumers-patients as active
participants in care
3. Automating existing healthcare processes versus
disrupting healthcare models
4. Large technology companies vs lean startups
eHealth versus Digital Health / Health
2.0?

First, consider this...
Page 10
(Whites Only) Class of ‘86, Kloof High School
Page 11
This is how we
communicated
Page 12
For information we relied on each other or
this...
Page 13
... it led to this wonderful story.
Page 14
...but also probably prolonged Apartheid
Page 15
Instant worldwide communication

Access to everything there is in the world
Page 19
Instant decision support
Page 22
But does it apply to healthcare?
Instant communication
Instant answers
Always on
Access to everything
Instant decision support
Always with me
Page 23
No. In some way’s we’re still in 1985
Page 24
Why the resistance?
Reimbursement models
Liability legislation
Legacy investments
Cultural – healthcare shouldn’t be
commercial
Cultural/vested interests – doctors don’t
want to lose control/authority (and patients
aren’t assertive)
Page 25
Will the healthcare system cross its Rubicon?
Page 26
Fortunately something is brewing

Health is
HOT !
The startup
factories
have
arrived
Page 28
In just two years, 15+ health startup accelerators &
incubators were established...
& 9 major digital health conferences
& numerous hackathons, competitions and investor
matchmaking events
http://healthstartup.eu/the-ultimate-health-
startup-resources-guide/
Spawning hundreds of new devices and apps
touching all aspects of healthcare
Page 29
But will it help?
Page 30
Because the reality is, the future of healthcare is not
looking so good...
•Staffing shortages
•Budgetting crises
•R&D becoming more costly
Page 31
What will be the impact of digital health?
•On quality & outcomes?
•On productivity & cost-efficiency?
•On access to healthcare?
Page 32
Change begins with imagining a better future

A Digital Health Manifesto
The future of healthcare, possible today

1. I want access to a transparent
market for healthcare services,
based on cost, outcomes and
reputations
- I have a right to choose the best
(and know who the best are)
A digital health manifesto

Which hospital?
Ask your GP...
Ratings on ***** scale:
•Outcome:
•Quality:
•Price:
•Experience:
Page 36
Which GP?
Ask your pharmacist...

- ‘Always on’ monitoring (the doctor
calls you)

3. I want access to (and I want my
clinician to have access to)
updated/complete medical
records, medical knowledge &
decision support tools
A digital health manifesto
Page 53
This is troubling
In the age of DROPBOX....
My (family’s) medical records are scattered at numerous
institutions and clinicians in Belgium, South Africa, New Zealand
and the U.K.
My new GP has no data. I have no data (except Kind & Gezin
booklets buried deep in a drawer)
Page 54
But this is an OUTRAGE
In the age of Google, where the world’s information should be
universally and instantly available...
The world’s scientific community produces 1,5 new articles a
year. These are published by a small number of publishing
companies, in journals which cost universities up to
€20,000/year
Long peer review process, causes delay of 2-5 years before
publication of results
Small wonder:
13,300 researchers have signed up to a boycott of Elsevier
UK Welcome Trust & Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation want
research results to be freely available within 6 months
Page 55
And here’s another OUTRAGE
In an age where “zero tolerance for error” is possible (as in
nuclear power stations, airliners, etc) using decision support
systems and quality control systems...
Death due to medical error is a top ten cause of death

e-Patient Dave
2007 diagnosed stage IV renal
cancer, 24 weeks to live
Via his kidney patient community
he found information outside the
‘clinical information pipeline’ about
a promising experimental drug
Took part in clinical trial,
successful treatment..
Today he’s a patient engagement
advocate

take control over my health

Genomics “Cheap genotyping...

Oxford Nanopore developed

sequencing device the size
of a USB memory stick
whose low cost, portability
and ease of use are
designed to make DNA

MinION is expected to retail
at less than $900

I’ve experienced thousands of
symptoms, been diagnosed
with numerous medical
conditions, taken hundreds of
medications, undergone many
scans and had many many
blood tests...
Yet, I haven’t contributed one
bit of data to medical research

1. I want access to a transparent

based on cost, outcomes and
reputations
- I have a right to choose the best
(and know who the best are)
A digital health manifesto
Page 88
Cultural barrier? (is competition in healthcare acceptable?)
The data is out there, simply needs to
be made available If institutions & doctors don’t release it,
patients-consumers will gather it themselves… the writing is on the wall
Barriers
Page 89
2. I want access to remote/mobile
health services
- Avoid travel & waiting rooms
- ‘Always on’ monitoring (the doctor
calls you)
A digital health manifesto
Page 90
Barriers:
• Reimbursement models
• Professional liability
Driver:
• International competition?
Barriers

3. I want access to (and I want my
clinician to have access to)
updated/complete medical
records, medical knowledge &
decision support tools
A digital health manifesto
Page 92
Medical records: a matter of time Personal records: cultural? (driver will
be communities, collaborative EHR, or coaching)
Medical knowledge: IP, clinical trials, peer review process
Decision support: cultural? (driver will be outcomes-based competition)
Barriers
Page 93
4. Empower me with technology to
take control over my health
- Doctor, take this seriously
A digital health manifesto
Page 94
Cultural?
Drivers will be networks effects and
development of Apple-like
products
Barriers
Page 95
5. All my anonymous health data
available to researchers
A digital health manifesto
Page 96
Research benefit is too indirect…
hence informed consent needs to
be integrated in clinical process
Barriers
Page 97
Use your imagination… At birth – genome, PHR, tailored lifestyle
programs kick in Adult – continuous monitoring of risk indicators,
setting personal goals, more coaching programs, choosing providers in transparent market, sharing data with patient communities and researchers
Elderly – at-home monitoring, DIY emergency care (devices, instruction kits)
Bringing it all together...
Page 98
Consumers/patients - Start today
So what?
Page 99
Clinicians – don’t resist, use the
technologies to improve
care/service, differentiate
So what?
Page 100
Hospitals – differentiate on data and
accessibility
So what?
Page 101
Policy/government – enable new
business models by adapting
reimbursement & liability
legislation; and set common
standards for interoperability and
security
So what?
Page 102
Entrepreneurs – there’s a huge
ecosystem out there, keen on
supporting you
So what?
