Abstract

Covid-19 had forced many industries to make lightning-fast changes. The Healthcare sector is one among them. Even before 2020, the healthcare industry has been embracing technology at various levels, but the pandemic made it rely on technologies even more. The global health app market is supposed to hit a whopping $125 billion by 2028, which was only about $2.4 billion in 2017. According to the World health organization (WHO) report, 80% of the healthcare providers are willing to invest more in new technologies and digital solutions, over traditional methods. Apart from Covid-19 related technology advancements in healthcare, ingestion of technology in other fields of healthcare like a diagnosis of diseases, early detection of genetic diseases and more are evolving fast. It’s important that we consider how those systems can integrate with newer technologies or how they may eventually be replaced with more reliable systems. The focus should be on improving performance, productivity, efficiency, and security without sacrificing reliability or accessibility.
