Personalized healthcare - statistics and facts
Personalized healthcare is underpinned by the understanding that genetics can influence an individual's response to prevention, diagnosis, and most of all, treatment. Up until fairly recently, traditional care was mostly predicated on a ‘one size fits all’ approach. In the previous decade, uptake and adoption of personalized care have increased, and it has been quoted as one of the most exciting emerging technologies in healthcare. The approach includes such things as individual patient profiles, digital health tools, remote monitoring, and customized care plans. Cited benefits comprise of improved patient outcomes, better patient experience, and lower healthcare costs.
