2. Digital Health
&
Health 2.0
Impact of digital technologies on healthcare?
4. What is Digital Health / Health 2.0?
8 converging elements:
¨C Wireless Sensors and Devices
¨C Genomics (A, C, G, T = digital)
¨C Social Networking
¨C Mobile Connectivity and Bandwidth
¨C Imaging
¨C Health Information Systems
¨C The Internet
¨C Computing Power and the Data Universe
5. eHealth versus Digital Health / Health
2.0?
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
28. In just two years, 15+ health startup accelerators &
incubators were established...
& 9 major digital health conferences
& numerous hackathons, competitions and investor
matchmaking events

startup-resources-guide/
Spawning hundreds of new devices and apps
touching all aspects of healthcare
33. A Digital Health Manifesto
The future of healthcare, possible today
34. A digital health manifesto
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)
35. Which hospital?
Ask your GP...
Ratings on scale:
?Outcome:
?Quality:
?Price:
?Experience:
42. A digital health manifesto
2. I want access to remote/mobile
health services
- Avoid travel & waiting rooms
- ¡®Always on¡¯ monitoring (the doctor
calls you)
43. Patient adjective. bearing provocation,
annoyance, misfortune, delay, hardship, pain,
etc., with fortitude and calm and without
complaint, anger, or the like.
52. A digital health manifesto
3. I want access to (and I want my
clinician to have access to)
updated/complete medical
records, medical knowledge &
decision support tools
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)
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
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
62. The story of
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
72. ...& real-time sequencing¡±
Oxford Nanopore developed
a disposable DNA
sequencing device the size
of a USB memory stick
whose low cost, portability
and ease of use are
designed to make DNA
sequencing universally
accessible. A single
MinION is expected to retail
at less than $900
81. A digital health manifesto
5. All my anonymous health data
available to researchers
82. 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
87. A digital health manifesto
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)
88. Barriers
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
89. A digital health manifesto
2. I want access to remote/mobile
health services
- Avoid travel & waiting rooms
- ¡®Always on¡¯ monitoring (the doctor
calls you)
91. A digital health manifesto
3. I want access to (and I want my
clinician to have access to)
updated/complete medical
records, medical knowledge &
decision support tools
92. Barriers
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)
93. A digital health manifesto
4. Empower me with technology to
take control over my health
- Doctor, take this seriously
97. Bringing it all together...
Use your imagination¡
At birth ¨C genome, PHR, tailored lifestyle
programs kick in
Adult ¨C continuous monitoring of risk indicators,
setting personal goals, more coaching
programs, choosing providers in transparent
market, sharing data with patient communities
and researchers
Elderly ¨C at-home monitoring, DIY emergency
care (devices, instruction kits)
101. So what?
Policy/government ¨C enable new
business models by adapting
reimbursement & liability
legislation; and set common
standards for interoperability and
security
