The health technology segment is rapidly changing. According to ECRI Institute, which releases an annual list of top technologies to watch in the following year, the health industry is generally shifting towards value-based care. According to Director of Health Assessment at ECRI Institute, Dr. Diane C. Robertson, leaders in the industry are “searching for effective ways to reduce costs while increasing care quality”. And if and when that happens, it will serve as the backdrop of much of health technology for the present and coming years.
Meanwhile, Venture Scanner, a startup research firm that analyzes major technologies, recently scoured through 1,091 health technology companies across 22 industry-based categories and came up with remarkable insights that can help recap the health technology landscape in 2016.
