Step Three 总结
目前的医疗情况面临着主要问题是无效花费在医疗费用中占有很大的比例,一方面来自于庞大机构的管理成本,另一方面来自于对患者治疗和用药的失误。正是在这样的条件下催生了医疗的数字化革命。
医疗数字化体现在一下几个方面:
(1)监测身体状况,培养良好的生活习惯,减少潜在病人;(APP+智能穿戴设备)
(2)远程医疗,预测分析,早期诊断,让病人得到更快的救治,防止病情恶化,减少住院;
(3)人工智能,通过大量的患者数据筛选出最合适的治疗方案,帮助医生分析病情,节省医生工作时间。
在这场革命中,受益最大的将是患者,但也存在隐患,即患者的信息将会掌握在科技公司手中,隐私及安全将得不到保障。
从长期来看,从中获得领导地位的将是掌握着客户数据渠道的大平台如:苹果,谷歌,亚马逊等。不仅在医疗方面,其他方面也是如此,因为我们进入的大数据时代一切商机都来自于对客户的需求分析,而这些需求分析则来自于对客户的行为数据的获取。
