KAIHAN'S HEALTHCARE INSIGHTS AND PERSPECTIVE
Context
- Ten million people in the United States live in counties with low physical access to healthcare facilities, providers, and limited or no broadband access (McKinsey). Telehealth has skyrocketed—not just due to COVID-19, but also to treat patients in hard-to-reach areas with a lack of healthcare providers and facilities. Telehealth also saves on hospital overutilization costs when patients avoid coming to the hospital or ER for every issue.
- During the COVID-19 pandemic, revenues in the healthcare industry fell 50 percent due to patient uncertainty over visiting healthcare facilities (Forbes).
- Global healthcare funding reached $31.6B in Q1 2021.
- COVID-19’s effect on minority groups has revealed significant inequity in outcomes for them: racial inequity, healthcare access disparity, social and behavioral health, and physical wellbeing (McKinsey).
Trends in Healthcare
Rise of Telehealth
Smart Health
AI and Automation
Rise of Telehealth
- It has been estimated that there were over 1 billion virtual care visits during 2020, with 900 million related to COVID-19 (Forrester). As of January 2020, only 24 percent of healthcare organizations had implemented infrastructure for virtual care (Forrester).
- In areas like India and China where there are a limited number of doctors, remote medicine allows for greater density of and access to patients.
- The convenience of having healthcare at our fingertips changed the service model in 2020, leading to the closure of 8 percent of physician practices. But there has been an explosion of telehealth options through companies such as Teladoc and Doctor On Demand (Fast Company). Weeks after the onset of COVID-19, 98 percent of community health centers made shifts to telephonic health services (NACHC). Doctor On Demand, for example, capitalizes on convenience through digital appointments, effectively reducing patient attrition on follow-up appointments (Fast Company).
Smart Health
- While a trusted physician-patient relationship remains the most important factor in consumer healthcare behavior, the rise of health tech, consumer health literacy, electronic medical records, increased consumer healthcare monitoring and other factors have changed the patient care landscape.
- Quality metrics for telehealth and smart health innovation and care are still being developed. Beyond access to care, the quality of care should be benchmarked against in-person care. Factors such as unplanned emergency room visits, medication adherence, patient satisfaction, and diagnostic accuracy are all crucial factors to consider.
- With the increasing data collection functions of mobile devices come numerous opportunities for HealthTech innovators. App developers have capitalized on smartphones, tablets, and wearables as opportunities to expand healthcare access and health data collection.
- Health apps have an opportunity to improve public health, prevent illness, and strengthen healthcare literacy. ResApp is an application that utilizes a smartphone’s microphone to analyze cough sounds to diagnose respiratory diseases. The K Health app applies AI to give users potential diagnoses based on symptoms entered (Fast Company). A research team at the Centre for Eye Research Australia developed an app for tablets that can recognize signs of Alzheimer’s through patient eye scans (Fast Company).
- Consumer fitness technology has the potential to dramatically save healthcare costs and prevent chronic disease. Obesity accounts for approximately 21 percent of annual US healthcare spending (National League of Cities). Eighty percent of people are willing to wear fitness technology, and 75 percent of users agree that wearables help them engage in their own health (Business Insider).
- Apple, through its Apple Watch and Health app, tracks and stores data on heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, and sleeping, and provides helpful systems for users to track their nutrition, mobility, and mental health.
AI and Automation
- As of this writing, 44 percent of healthcare professionals have not been involved in the “development or deployment” of AI systems in their organization (McKinsey), but AI is quickly growing within the healthcare industry.
- AI applications are expected to relocate primary care from the hospital to the home, decentralizing primary healthcare access and providing the opportunity for AI-based data gathering, analyzing, and patient monitoring (AHA).
- AI and automation capabilities show promise in reducing time spent on routine administrative tasks, which currently require up to 70 percent of healthcare professionals’ availability (McKinsey).
- Partnering AI and automation in the healthcare supply chain is vital for agile production and delivery of care to patients; predictive analytics and delivery optimization are just two areas of strong potential for AI and automation implementation.
