The digital health space refers to the integration of technology and health care services to improve the overall quality of health care delivery. It encompasses a wide range of innovative and emerging technologies such as wearables, telehealth, artificial intelligence, mobile health, and electronic health records (EHRs). The digital health space offers numerous benefits such as improved patient outcomes, increased access to health care, reduced costs, and improved communication and collaboration between patients and health care providers. For example, patients can now monitor their vital signs such as blood pressure and glucose levels from home using wearable devices and share the data with their doctors in real-time. Telehealth technology allows patients to consult with their health care providers remotely without having to travel to the hospital, making health care more accessible, particularly in remote or rural areas. Artificial intelligence can be used to analyze vast amounts of patient data to identify patterns, predict outcomes, and provide personalized treatment recommendations. Overall, the digital health space is rapidly evolving, and the integration of technology in health

Expanding the Role of AI Technology in Healthcare 


The adoption of artificial intelligence in healthcare is beginning. The topic is a complex area with input required from siloes of knowledge spanning data science, programming, and clinical areas. Clinicians, clinical information systems, including electronic health records, and governmental regulatory bodies (including CMS, Medi-Cal, and Public health organizations will be required to communicate with interoperability standards, much like the health information exchanges designed to merge disparate systems for accessing electronic patient information.  The task will be formidable and take considerable time until it is mature, perhaps as long as ten years.. Experience with electronic health record interoperability demonstrates it has taken over ten years to become well established.

EHR interoperability has expanded in several dimensions, proprietary systems such as EPIC, and CERNER provides an interface amongst institutions that utilize their electronic health record system.
