Top Five Digital Health Technologies in 2019

Digital technologies are constantly evolving and finding new applications in healthcare, even while the industry is struggling with adoption and'digital transformation'. Each year new applications emerge, but the underlying technologies driving them remain the same. For 2019, we asked companies around the world one basic question: "Please indicate the key technology which you believe will have the most profound impact on the healthcare industry during 2019?" Of course, these respondents are distributed across widely different sectors – pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, medical devices, medical imaging equipment, in-vitro diagnostics, remote patient monitoring, healthcare IT and digital health solution providers – but excluding care delivery settings such as hospitals and other facilities. This means that these technologies are being viewed through a different lens, depending on which sector the respondent belongs to.
