What is mobile health technology? 

Mobile health technology refers to the use of communication technologies to deliver health information, services, and treatment. They can take on various forms, and could be as simple as implementing EHRs (electronic health records) into your practice, using remote monitoring devices, or utilizing an integrated mobile health app. As technological developments become more and more advanced, it only makes sense for these forms of technology to be included within healthcare. Another contributing factor to the growing industry of mobile health is related to patient experience. As consumer-based care grows increasingly important, healthcare businesses have begun to mold their business plans on the needs of the patient. Mobile health options cater to consumer-based care ideals as patients are granted greater flexibility and accessibility. Healthcare practices are also majorly benefitting from mobile health systems, through significant amounts of saved time and resources. The advantages of mobile health features are reflected in the exponential growth of the industry, which is expected to reach 311.98 billion USD by 2027.

What are the benefits of mobile health technology?

The greatest part about implementing private practice software is the significant advantages that it poses for both patients and healthcare practitioners:

  1. Remote monitoring: This is a mobile healthcare solution that allows patients to access certain healthcare services from the comfort of their own homes. Remote monitoring is especially effective for patients who have a chronic illness or require follow-up care following a procedure or surgery. Research also suggests that remote monitoring significantly reduces readmissions.
  2. Clinical documentation: Mobile health technology integrates with clinical documentation and patient records, allowing healthcare providers to have instant access to relevant patient information. Real-time updates can help ensure that physicians have all the required information to treat a patient appropriately. 
  3. Workflow: Managing a healthcare practice’s workflow is a time-consuming task that requires effective communication across all staff members. Mobile health integrates with appointment scheduling software, allowing the system to produce an efficient schedule that guarantees a productive workflow.
  4. Communication: One of the biggest challenges that the healthcare industry faces is managing communication between physicians and their patients. Mobile health apps provide a direct channel of communication between patients and physicians, fostering stronger and more meaningful relationships.
