If so, how? How do mobile devices used by clinicians interface with the Meaningful Use program? How will the mHealth industry respond to its maturing role as part of the medical device industry? Will the health care industry be able to successfully monetize mHealth? How will an industry plagued by a slow rate of behavior change adapt amid the fast-paced shift being witnessed elsewhere?

Consumers are ready, willing, and able to use mHealth – once convinced of the accuracy, value, and security of technologies. When these hurdles to adoption are overcome, mobile technology will be poised to transform health care. What do these mHealth views mean for you?
