Senior Care 2.0
Digital Health Technologies Transforming Senior Care
Report Introduction
The senior care market is poised for major disruption by digital health technologies, with companies developing both software and hardware solutions for people aging at home as well as those staying at retirement communities.
However, while technologies have been developed, we are still "not there." Most solutions tend to be complicated and many were just rebranded "regular" products for the seniors. Interfaces need to change so that more people could use them.
Nonetheless, the momentum is building and in this report we'll take a look at what the major companies and startups alike are doing to make people's golden years as enjoyable as possible.
On the other hand, these same technologies provide family members and care providers with an easier way to keep up with their relatives/patients. This report will explore the challenges, goals, technologies and trends in the tech-enabled senior care.
Finally, by going through and analyzing various senior care products and services, we touch upon technologies that have wider use cases, beyond care for the elderly. In that sense, this research brief provides and overview of a bigger market while highlighting those solutions that can have the biggest effects on senior care.

Is This The Report For You?
DHbriefs reports are made for today's busy people, including:
Pharma
You probably already know Big Pharma is investing millions in digital health technologies. After all, it is easier and more affordable to launch a digital therapeutic than develop a brand new drug with all the lab work and trials, let alone regulatory requirements, that come included with a brand new drug launch.
Payors
Digital health apps and services provide insurance companies and other payors with tools they could offer to their customers so they could lead healthier lives. As a result, payors get to save money and offer better, more personalized services — i.e. the more you walk every day, the lower premium you end up paying. Ultimately, such incentives also lead to better outcomes.
Software developers
With the growth of digital health, we saw many non-traditional players entering the space — software developers being one of them. They see there's money to be made by helping doctors and hospitals digitize their businesses while providing patients with that much better services. In that sense, our reports help software developers find their niches in the market and even potential partners.
Job seekers
Digital health is the industry every job seeker should try to break into. It is growing fast, offering huge opportunities for everyone looking for a great career (and a fat paycheck, we might add). The best part is that you don't have to be a software developer — there are job openings across the board, including in marketing, sales, social media, PR, admin, and more. And YES, our reports will give you an unfair advantage on the market.
And that's not all...
We are also confident that our reports will help other parties, including (but not limited to):
- Investors in the (digital) healthcare or those looking to enter the space
- Contract Research Organizations (CROs)
- Healthcare business analysts
- Savvy physicians looking to familiarize themselves with modern technologies
- Government-employed healthcare professionals
- The NGO sector involved in the healthcare space
As well as for everyone else looking to advance his/her career by being ahead of the curve.
But don't take our word for it. Here's what some of our clients have said about reports:
"I work for at a major Medicare Advantage Plan and honestly, I never thought I'll need or want to get a report from a third party. At our company, they send us more brochures and information than any human can possibly comprehend. But I decided to try your Premium Membership and I'm glad I made the move. Now I much better understand up and coming technologies that will be relevant for my work in the next few years. I also like the way how reports are structured which makes them easy to grasp."
The main idea behind our reports is to save time and consequently money. We did the research, spent hours and hours consolidating all the different information, and summed it all up for you. We are sure you have more important things to do - why bother with research when you can have everything delivered to your iPad, computer, or whichever device you happen to use.
While we're sure you have your own sources — and let's face it — some of which may be even better than ours (i.e. if you're an investor), we are sure you will appreciate our work as well. We took an extra effort to analyze and synthesize all the data, so you get only the good stuff.
There are no doubts that digital health technologies are booming. The question is not whether you should get "in"; the question is can you afford NOT to. Get our report and never look back. There is a 30-day money-back guarantee so you have nothing to lose.
