Research and Markets (http://www. researchandmarkets. com/reports/c30405 (http://www. researchandmarkets. com/reports/c30405)) has announced the addition of Mobile Healthcare - Opportunities & Strategies for Wireless Technologies & Applications to their offering.
The Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society pointed to wireless devices as the top emerging technology in a half of all hospitals surveyed in the coming two years. During the year 2000 the total healthcare spend in Western European countries approached $3000 per capita, while in the USA per capita spend exceeded $4000. Within an industry financially stretched by aging populations opportunity exists for a proven technology to reduce operating costs and improve capacity, and quality of service.
As a result Mobile Healthcare focuses on a number of key roles that would comfortably benefit from the introduction of wireless technology and details how it should be deployed and what applications are most suitable for each role. Without a proven history of large scale deployment many organisations are unwilling to risk capital. However as more is understood about the technology at our disposal, the opportunities multiply, and a huge potential exists to improve upon many aspects within the healthcare industry.
This unique report offers a thorough examination of the use of mobile & wireless technologies in healthcare throughout Western Europe & North America. It examines the roles and applications that can benefit from mobility. Mobile healthcare considers present & future methods for addressing needs at every technological level, from hardware devices & software applications to integration issues. Most importantly focusing on the unique challenges & opportunities mobile & wireless technology offers the healthcare sector.
