Digital technology has expanded to touch every aspect of our lives and so it is no surprise that digital health has also exploded. Digital health encompasses a broad scope and plays a vital role touching diverse areas that include electronic health records, wearables, medical devices and other medical technologies, artificial intelligence, machine learning, data privacy, medical apps, and much, much more.
