Thus, digitalization of healthcare allows for care beyond the bounds of the hospital and into the limits of your own home. With the increasing number of patients demanding health care services, often the infrastructure falls short. And hence, healthcare providers are now increasingly shifting towards remote monitoring services like telemonitoring and IoT connected wearables. These biosensing wearables can track and monitor real-time changes in the health of patients and store the data to the health records of the patients. This data can be used for early diagnosis and to provide real-time health support to patients.
