In recent years, the healthcare industry has
transformed to offer value-based care. With
health care becoming more affordable, it also
means more patients and more challenges of health
complexities. A hospitals performance rating is
based on a combination of important financial
objectives, along with advancing the patient
experience and quality initiatives. For
improved patient access, technology solutions
have become a vital part of the advanced system
for insurance and healthcare. The incorporation
of technology has an important role in
progressive outcomes for both patients and
facilities. Technology can aid to form long-term
advances which can support the complete
coordination from healthcare administrators to
the patients to insurers.

The advancement of technology in healthcare
services is going to be immense and is projected
to grow steadily over the following decade.
According to the report, the U.S healthcare
information technology (HCIT) market has
generated 61.01 billion in 2017 and is projected
to grow and reach 149.17 billion by 2025,
growing at a CAGR of 11.7 from 2018 to
2025. We, as a digital transformation thought
leader bring forth to share some of the advancing
technologies which can amplify your patient
outcomes and support necessary healthcare
facility functioning

Artificial Intelligence (AI)
It is important for patients and their family
members to know that they too can have access to
healthcare with the help of technology through
chatbots which are available on the website as
well as the mobile platform. Chatbots help to
easily communicate with patients and do various
tasks for them such as setting an appointment,
check on their insurance, reschedule an
appointment, request a refill for their
medication, set reminders and many
more. Consistent access to information can help
healthcare providers make more informed decisions
while delivering care in the most efficient and
effective manner.

Blockchain
When it comes to data and how it can be managed
better, Blockchain development is becoming more
crucial along with the combination of other
advancing technologies such as Artificial
Intelligence and the Internet of Things
(IoT). Healthcare facilities contain a large
amount of data which involves personal and
private information and this is where Blockchain
can be used to keep this data secure and
accessible to only individuals who need to access
it. Combining AI along with Blockchain could
provide patients with more detailed insights. It
would help them to understand the actual
healthcare costing with precise details of
services being provided to them, the details on
reimbursement from insurance companies and the
actual financial balance. Overall, a common
database of health information, services, payment
details, insurance policies would mean less
amount of administration time and more quality
time spent on providing better healthcare
services.

These emerging technologies have been attracting
a lot of attention in the pharmaceutical
industry. Both, Augmented Reality (AR) and
Virtual Reality (VR) have shown some great
potential in helping patients who are suffering
from anxiety to allowing trainee doctors to
practice crucial health procedures. Early
adopters in the healthcare sector are reaping
amazing benefits for incorporating these
technologies in their facilities. Augmented
Reality is playing an important role in bridging
the gap and creating awareness of products in a
visual way. For example, Pfizer used AR powered
by Blippar so that consumers could understand and
learn how ThermaCare works and use the relief
finder tool to learn about various other products
which would be best suitable to them to relive
their precise pain.

Another advantage of AR is that it allows trainee
and practicing physicians to observe data and
educational information at hand without having to
leave behind crucial tasks. For example, it can
help practitioners comprehend the best way to
administer a new procedure or show them in AR how
a specific procedure should be done.

Conclusion
Digitization enables healthcare facilitators to
go beyond their regular routine and do a more
productive functioning using disruptive
technologies such as Augmented Reality, Virtual
Reality, Artificial Intelligence, and
Blockchain. Digitization of healthcare industry
carries enormous potential in terms of ROI and
long-term growth. At App Maisters, we help
healthcare organizations improve their
productivity to ensure successful patient
outcomes. Get in touch with App Maisters experts
