Accelerate Updates to AI Algorithms with PCCP: Webinar
MATTER & Orthogonal Partner for CD-CE Webinar
Using our smart watches, smart speakers and smartphones to aid in diagnosing ear infections, pneumonia and COVID-19 is just the beginning of an empowering clinical revolution. Will monitoring of our vital signs be as easy as popping in our AirPods? Could mapping the human body and assessing physical injuries be done with new 3D features on our smartphones?
Clinical Diagnostics on Consumer Electronics (CD-CE) are democratizing access to healthcare by moving diagnosis from Points of Care to Points of Living. Apps on our everyday devices could improve patient outcomes through earlier diagnosis, close the healthcare equity gap and bend the cost curve.
To get there, CD-CE manufacturers must address safety and clinical effectiveness concerns from regulatory bodies, as well as cost and ROI concerns from insurance providers – plus technical challenges that arise from a bring-your-own-device approach to device computing.
MATTER Chicago and Orthogonal held a webinar overview of CD-CE with a panel of entrepreneurs at the forefront of this new class of diagnostics. The panel discussed CD-CE’s potential to create huge opportunities, the impact it will have on patients, providers and payers as well as the challenges it presents to healthcare stakeholders.
This recording includes the roughly hour and a half main program with Q&A.
