Description

Join us for a beginner-friendly introduction to the future of health care!
This workshop demystifies the foundational concepts of digital health, what it is, how it works, and its crucial role in today’s landscape. Using simple frameworks and practical, real-world examples, we will explore how digital tools transform patient engagement, clinical workflows, and health outcomes. You will learn to differentiate between patient-facing, clinician-facing, and system-facing technologies, and gain a practical lens for evaluating new digital solutions while considering ethical and practical challenges like data privacy and algorithmic bias.

Learning Objectives

  • Define key digital health terms and categories (e.g., telehealth, virtual care, AI in health).
  • Understand how digital health solutions create value for patients, providers, and health systems.
  • Recognize common pitfalls and evaluation criteria when assessing digital health tools.
  • Describe core ethical considerations, including privacy, equity, and AI transparency.
