From the report

• Pew Internet & American Life Project: Those with mobile broadband Internet access are far more likely than those with only wired connections to seek health information online.

• Medicine/health is the third-fastest-growing category of iPhone apps, trailing only games and travel.

Steve Brown

• “First of all, Connected Health is a much bigger idea than the original idea of telemedicine, which was all about laying the painful last mile of technology to finally reach those with the greatest needs to communicate about health.”

• “Connected Health, in contrast, is not about devices, sensors and gadgets. It is about the idea that how people connect with each other has a profound impact on health. “
