The key to fixing this difficult challenge in the healthcare industry is by utilizing a combination of innovative technology that can customize treatments based on individual lifestyles and challenges, along with good data and clinical practice. This will enable the best possible health care available to each person and his or her unique health and life challenges and enable him or her to receive the best possible care to live the best life possible.
INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY CAN HELP US TO ACHIEVE HEALTH EQUITY IF USED PROPERLY
Innovative technology can help to achieve health equity in our healthcare systems by enabling underserved and marginalized communities the ability to receive the healthcare they need that they could not receive in the past. However, we have to ensure that it does; it is also possible for innovative technology to only widen the digital divide between those who have technology (smartphones, Internet access, and similar innovations) and those who do not.
There are many facets of our society that must work in tandem to ensure that those underserved communities actually receive the healthcare they need utilizing the advancing technology we are developing. These facets include policymakers who drive social change and physicians and hospital systems finding workable solutions for their patients.
