MobiHealthNews Q1 2014 report now freely available
Posted By Brian Dolan On April 14, 2014 (2:39 pm) In Uncategorized

For the past few years MobiHealthNews has published quarterly reports on the
state
 of mobile and digital health, but moving forward those paid reports will
take
 the form of Friday Exclusives -- the Friday edition of our daily newsletter
--
 and In-Depths on our website. They will be free for all to read thanks to
our
 generous sponsors and advertisers.

Last week we published our Q1 2014 review and like most quarters for digital
health,
 the past three months were eventful.

Among arguably much more important events, Apple hired a whole lot of
medical
 sensor experts for some unknown reason – most suspect for the rumored
iWatch.
 More NBA players started wearing health tracking devices. The Google Flu
Trends
 debacle got some scholarly attention. Disney helped launch a tooth brushing
app
 for kids. Facebook bought a virtual reality company for $2 billion that it
might
 use for remote doctor visits someday. And a company called HealBe said it
had
 developed a device to passively track caloric intake.

As we do every quarter, the MobiHealthNews team rounded up the emerging
trends,
 investment announcements and digital health news summaries categorized by
health
 care stakeholder (provider, payer, pharma, government, and so on.)

Be sure to give the full 7-page report read over at the MobiHealthNews site
right
 here.
