How entrepreneurs can meet the moment in digital healthcare innovation?

The healthcare industry has historically been laggard, relying heavily on in-person experiences and a paper-based infrastructure that is difficult to maneuver and modernize. However, social distancing requirements brought on by the pandemic caused the demand for virtual and digital healthcare options to skyrocket. As a prime example, stakeholders throughout the healthcare system were forced to quickly move to telemedicine, previously underutilized as a channel of care.

Since healthcare’s digital adoption was catalyzed by Covid-19, it could be considered a small silver lining that the necessity helped drive technological innovation to meet new demands and better serve patients.
