The Drive to Adopt Digital Therapeutics: Where do we Stand?

As regulatory processes and reimbursements are refined, there needs to be a continued focus on how to maximize the benefits for patients and ensure DTx can play a role in improving outcomes. The key to this is integration into the clinical workflow. The healthcare industry is continuing to evolve with technological innovations that can provide clinicians with a more holistic view of their patient’s health and which we ultimately expect to  improve patient outcomes. Both telehealth and remote patient monitoring (RPM) have seen a significant increase in adoption over the last couple of years. As those technologies continue to see broader usage and become part of mainstream healthcare delivery, what’s next on the horizon for digital health technology? One very interesting category is digital therapeutics (DTx), which have seen an uptick in development, progress in regulation and early evidence of adoption and impact.
