New Technologies Shaping the Future of Healthcare

With advances in digital healthcare technologies, the future of healthcare is changing. There are several sophisticated breakthroughs such as Artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, voice search, 3D printing, robotics or nanotechnology, chatbots, and virtual reality (VR). 

Even mobile apps have been instrumental as well. They are a great way to keep communication lines open and for medical personnel to stay in touch with their patients, long after they have been discharged from the medical facilities. 

There are so many benefits of technology. Virtual reality on the other hand is expected to increase from under five billion U.S. dollars this year to more than 12 billion U.S. dollars by 2024. You can imagine how fast technologies are moving. Moving at a lightning speed.

Many healthcare industries will now be focusing on how best to integrate these new technologies with the already long-existing physical ones. To get a prescription nowadays, you don't need to visit your doctor in person. All you have to do is contact him via the clinic app and you will get a digital prescription. The app also has an online pharmacy where you can quickly send the receipt and within 24 hours, you will get your medications. 

Virtual visits will be instrumental to improve access to primary care and urgent care, as well as to better collaboration with health facilities

The present-day advancements in the healthcare technology industry are taking things to new heights, and more new exciting possibilities are becoming ever-present than before. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the gaps and inefficiencies of many healthcare systems around the world have become more obvious. Now, the new technologies being created are receiving more awareness than ever before.
