Opportunities Enabled by the Affordable Care Act
The Affordable Care Act is enabling a new generation of companies to leverage information and technology to transform our healthcare ecosystem. There are many new products coming forward to help alleviate the pressure on the healthcare system, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Companies like Butterfly Network are making remote healthcare much easier, with portable and small ultraounds that analyse lung and cardiac health connecting to phones to present in a video chat with a qualified healthcare professional. Advancements like these are alleviating pressure on the healthcare industry, as well as reducing the costs that mount on them everyday. Areas such as electronic health records, care coordination, wellness, remote monitoring and data analytics are changing the healthcare system while helping traditional participants comply with the requirements of the ACA – an entrepreneurial perfect storm. Panelists will address the innovations that are arising to enable payers, providers, patients and pharma to reduce costs and improve outcomes.
Following the panel, several innovative growth-stage digital health companies will provide a three-minute overview and will be available for private meetings.
