Person-Centricity: Leveraging Technology, Mobility and Connectivity to Bend the Sickness Curve

April 15, 2014


PERSON-CENTRICITY: LEVERAGING TECHNOLOGY, MOBILITY AND CONNECTIVITY TO BEND THE SICKNESS CURVE from CommNexus on Vimeo.

The Healthcare Communications SIG Presents…

person-centricitySIG 

Health has become a national security issue. We propose a person-centric approach by putting the whole person in the game and as such have profound impact to begin to bend the sickness curve. We strongly contend that technology enhanced decision making and support via connected health, HIT and mobile technology issues can exert a powerful impact on improving lives while reducing costs and therewith change the trajectory from sickness care to health. The ability to be connected via a wide range of low energy Bluetooth technologies via devices, monitoring sensors or devices and trackers create a connected ecosystem that affords one access, convenience and piece of mind. The fact that at least 70 percent of the time people trust their cardiac, diabetes or Asthma monitoring devices to tell when and if to seek further medical attention is daunting. We can empower the person and instill comfort and couple that with real- time continuous monitoring to create a behavioral symphony of wellness and outfit the person with better tools to evaluate evidence-based treatment options that are personalized for the individual.

We can begin to take the pain out of becoming healthy and promote the understanding that small changes can make huge differences. We understand that beyond promoting healthy behaviors and lifestyle changes we need to leverage technology and our actions to promote and sustain healthy behaviors. The system has matured to allow us to align the advances of information technology, mobility, and advanced technologies to recapture the concept of person and health back into the framework to improve the health of the person, the community of persons and the nation.  This transition is consistent with those elements of self-determination, prudence, good judgment, personal and social responsibility that typify the American spirit and tradition. Our panel convenes experts from a wide range of disciplines drawn from mobile and connected health, personalized medicine, health and wellness, medicine, public health, national policy and ethics to offer a comprehensive and multifaceted approach to exploring the implications of this new paradigm.
