How can medtech firms take a cue from big tech companies that are tapping data to transform products, capabilities, business models and entire markets? Collected from sources like devices, EMRs and patient surveys, data can provide valuable feedback to improve surgical practice, speed regulatory approval, improve reimbursement and definitively prove value. It can improve medical technology, help patients avoid institutions, reduce medication dependence and improve safety. It can extend medtech’s relationship with patients well outside the realm of one-time interventions. This panel will focus on how medtech uses data—the barriers, the success stories and the future to come.
