Research and Markets\u2019 findings dovetail with predictions from executives at Elsevier, a global information analytics business headquartered in Amsterdam.According to John Danaher, MD, Elsevier\u2019s global president of clinical solutions, improved quality of care will lead to reduced healthcare costs in 2020, but only if the healthcare sector makes use of the technology available. \u201cAlthough industry chatter surrounds the popularity of decreasing care variability, a majority of health systems have yet to adopt services\/protocols to draw meaningful impact,\u201d Danaher says. \u201cClinical decision support technology assists physicians with predictive AI technology, allowing physicians to standardize data and make more informed decisions, at the point of care.\u201dDanaher notes that empowering physicians with AI technology tools at the point of care will not only improve patient outcomes, but it will reduce the traditional inefficiencies often associated with paperwork and data entry.

Rich Loomis, MD, chief informatics officer for clinical solutions at Elsevier says digital health tools will move beyond consumer technology and into health systems in 2020. \u201cMore consumers are taking the drivers\u2019 seat when it comes to monitoring, and managing, their health,\u201d he says. \u201cThis \u2018consumerization of healthcare\u2019 will expand, finding its place in the clinical care setting. And, as the adoption of collaborative patient-physician tools continue see an uptick, health systems will realize the positive impacts on the patient-physician relationship.\u201dPrecision medicine is expected to grow beyond cancer treatment, according to Olaf Lodbrok, senior vice president and general manager of precision medicine and clinical solutions at Elsevier. \u201cTechnology and diagnostics created to customize cancer treatments based on an individuals\u2019 genetic makeup is transforming cancer care as we know it,\u201d he says. \u201cThe power of precision medicine will lead the charge in opening a paradigm shift toward other areas of medicine and we will continue to see this impact through 2020."Access the Global Digital Health Outlook 2020 here<\/a>.","saveContent":"Payers and providers will see artificial intelligence, care coordination, cybersecurity, data analytics, digital therapeutics and telehealth drive the digital health market in 2020.The study by Dublin-based Research and Markets, entitled, "Global Digital Health Outlook, 2020," says digital health \u201cis a growing but complex market,\u201d with an expected compound annual growth rate of 12 percent through 2023.Payers should look to digital solutions to boost the quality and efficiency of healthcare, authors of the study say.
