The World Economic Forum’s mHealth Summit kicks off today in San Diego. Here’s a nice introduction to the subject matter:
“The device you’ve got with you all the time… making healthcare more personal… (2:30-2:53) …took a 3G connection and put a video camera in a clinic where the Doctors might come every so often to treat the patients, but for follow up they’re actually doing it over video over 3G and they’re providing the kind of healthcare that wouldn’t have been able to be provided in these developing markets by leveraging the Doctors much more broadly on a geographical basis”
Paul E Jacobs, Chairman and CEO, Qualcomm and Chair of the WEF Global Agenda Council on the Future of Mobile Communications
