Presented by the RFID SIG and the Life Sciences SIG of the MIT Enterprise Forum of Cambridge
It’s an issue that never goes away for those in the innovation business — why proven ideas don’t get adopted faster. Tonight’s session looks at telehealth as a lesson in technology adoption (or non-adoption, as the case may be). Does it really matter if outcomes are better, costs are reduced and customers are happier? What else must technologies (or their backers) do in order to prove themselves worthy? What can telehealth’s lessons teach innovators in other areas? What lessons can successful innovators elsewhere teach telehealth?
We’ll explore those questions with a panel of proven veterans in the telehealth battles, in technology adoption and in healthcare innovation in general.
