Is mHealth for Real? “He Said – She Said”
A Friendly, Moderated Debate Between Two Healthcare IT Leaders on the relative “Pros” and “Cons” of mHealth, including:
- Barriers to Adoption
- Pathways to Success
- Patient Engagement Enablement
- Privacy & Security Concerns
- Wireless Device Management

For stakeholders, Is mHealth worth the costs and risks involved? Is it another “internet bubble” in the making? What are some of the replicable mHealth “Success Stories”, as well as “Lessons Learned”, and what steps should your organization take in order to successfully mitigate the risks and maximize the strengths of mHealth? This expert panel will explore these issues and seek to provide answers…
