The market access challenge
Digital health technologies are failing to reach their potential to boost the quality and efficiency of healthcare systems, largely because of a lack of dedicated access pathways or value assessment processes
Digital health is an emerging and rapidly developing field with the potential to increase the quality and efficiency of healthcare systems. The rise of digital health technologies (DHTs) has been driven by an increase in non-communicable diseases and a desire by patients to take a more active role in the management of their condition and is now being accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. DHTs have the potential to allow payers and manufacturers to track patient outcomes and adherence better, faster and more accurately, and hence support wider adoption of value-based healthcare models.
