The Future of Healthcare: Humans and Machines Partnering for Better Outcomes

by Emmanuel Fombu

We live in a world where data can help us make more informed decisions about how to navigate traffic, who to date, what to buy, who to network with and how to better manage our finances. But when it comes to our personal health and wellness, we have no roadmap. We need something to show us where we are in terms of our health, with landmarks for risks and opportunities. A GPS that makes it easier to move toward our personal health goals. A new way to look at health and life. The future of healthcare is coming. This is what it looks like.

Reviews

[Ramdas · Rating 4 out of 5]

Informative, well written and an easy read on how healthcare could evolve based on the internet of things, AI and machine learning and the challenges and opportunities that can impact our individual wellbeing.

[Aqil Pasha · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good information but gets too repetitive in its attempt to drive a few points home (Ex need for Value Based HC and EHR interoperability) - good book but would’ve been equally effective if half the chapters were removed
