Many health care facilities are transitioning their services to accountable care organizations (ACOs). This requires greater patient engagement, something which might be accomplished with the burgeoning use of mobile health (mHealth) technology. By keeping themselves active in their own well-being, patients who use mHealth techniques can stay healthy and save money for themselves and their health care providers.
This guide consults expert opinions in outlining the future of ACO and mHealth technology and how they can work together to provide a better health care experience for patients and providers alike.
