#11: Digital Health
Digital health is a technology that appeared only a few years ago. Up to now, it was very often overlooked. The current situation is helping digital health to show its full potential. For example, Digital health can be used as a triage system, finding out what kind of illness a patient has with chatbots and telemedicine solutions. Afterward, the patients can be referred to real-life doctors - to the right one.
A solution Symptoma has developed. In this episode, I am talking with the CEO of Symptoma, Jama Nateqi, about the real potential of digital health.
Another novel technology appeared recently - blockchain. Astrid Woollard, Partner at Scytale Ventures, is investing in companies that develop blockchain-based solutions. She has joined us to chat about the leverage blockchain can provide for digital health and the entire healthcare system.
