Using mHealth To Work Smarter

A widely used term in the rapidly changing world of mobile technologies for healthcare is mHealth. Initial use of the term often focused on the use of mobile phones and handheld devices to deliver health information and services to consumers in mature nations and to rural citizens in developing nations. In order to address critical global challenges, mHealth should instead be viewed as an umbrella term that covers a wide range of mobile solutions which can help enable governments and health organizations to deliver higher-quality, more efficient healthcare.
