The past year has catapulted the health care industry into a fully remote and virtual environment. The COVID-19 pandemic quickly accelerated the growth of innovation and technologies to not only improve the health ecosystem in times of crisis, but enhance the patient experience overall. With this new digital endeavor, health care systems and service and care providers have the opportunity to improve access and address health disparities while simultaneously elevating Greater Philadelphia’s status as a behavioral healthcare hub.
Join this in-depth discussion with leaders in health care innovation to discover what opportunities lie ahead for our region at the intersection of health and technology. Attendees will gain insight into the next wave of health care innovation, learning how experts plan to incorporate a secure tech-enabled health ecosystem and how this will positively impact the patient experience while ensuring patient privacy.
