The cost of U.S. healthcare continues to soar. Spending on hospitalizations and chronic care management now exceed $500 billion per year, representing over 75 percent of all health care costs. With average life expectancy at an all-time high of 78 years, the nation’s elderly population is drastically increasing. More patients and larger disease incidence continues to hit the system with limited/shortage of health care resources. The U.S. healthcare system has a classic miss-match of demand and supply challenge. Innovative technology solutions can help close the gap between the cost and mis-match in supply and demand.
