How Next-Generation Care Will Be More Patient-Focused

The technological advances used to deliver care during the pandemic aren’t suddenly going to disappear in favor of in-person visits only. Next-generation care will be much more patient-focused, with many options such as mobile apps for patients to interact with providers and care facilities.

If an organization has to make do with fewer workers, technology can fill in some of those care gaps to engage patients more fully in their care while keeping credentialed employees working near the top of their licenses.

Healthcare mobile apps aimed at increasing compliance before/after tests and procedures or helping patients successfully manage their chronic conditions benefit both cost-conscious providers and patients, who are increasingly comfortable with using technology in every aspect of their lives.
