Broadband for America have put together a great article with quotes that sum up this weeks mHealth Session at the CTIA Conference. My personal favourite is the from Clint McClellan, Senior Director Business Development Wireless Health, Qualcomm:
“We’ll need to focus on rural. I’ve heard horror stories of a patient driving 42 miles for a check-up only to have the doctor say, “You look great, have a nice day.” You could have that visit over a live chat and save time, money and resources”
Yes that’ll work very nicely on a 3G Video Consult…
