mHealth Tools are Transforming Healthcare

May 13, 2014Christina Nash

Mobile devices, tablets, wireless tools and other targeted applications are paving the way for increased care for patients and providers. The infographic below demonstrates how mHealth tools are changing the face of healthcare as more Americans adopt mobile devices and harness the power of wireless connectivity.

Here are some insightful statistics below about the progress we’re making:

    • 247 million Americans have downloaded a health app
    • 95 million Americans are using mobile phones as health tools
    • Mobile health is a $1.3 billion industry and by 2018 is expected to reach $20 billion
    • 42% of U.S. hospitals are using digital health technology to treat patients
    • Remote patient monitoring using mobile will save the U.S. $36 billion in healthcare costs by 2018
    • Wireless pill bottles helped increase medication compliance to over 95%
    • 77% of U.S. seniors own a cell phone as smartphone ownership among U.S. seniors has increased 55% in the past year
    • When mobile health solutions send text reminders to patients, medication adherence increases by 10%
    • Text reminders also more than double the quit rate for smokers and save $812 per diabetes patient
