Alex D'souzaManaging Editoreditor@healthcaretechoutlook.comIn many ways, 2019 was a coming-of-age for the home healthcare industry. The landscape became steadily recognized as a key part of the overall continuum of care owing to its ability to help elder adults that require extra care. Throughout the last year, the home healthcare space significantly reduced the amount of time and resources healthcare facilities, hospitals, assisted living or rehabilitation centers, and nursing homes spent in delivering effective healthcare to disabled and geriatric patients. Today, as America's older population continues to grow at an unprecedented rate, home care is likely to become the center of care delivery over the next few decades. More organizations will choose innovation and expand the range of services they provide across the care continuum. To this end, the future of healthcare is predicted to transition from episodic to continuous care. Today, patient care is low-frequency, acute-care focused, and deeply rooted in brick and mortar institutions. Tomorrow, care will be continuous, connected, virtual, on-demand, and synchronous.That being said, success doesn't come without challenges. With the demand for individualized care increasing, home health and companion care companies can expect to receive a large percentage of post-acute patient referrals, which will pose a unique challenge. To overcome this obstacle, firms will have to improve their operational efficiencies through innovation. And this is where technology will play its part. Innovation through technology within the home healthcare space will serve as an important ingredient in providing real-time information and access to key stakeholders, thereby enhancing the overall patient care process.In this edition of Healthcare Tech Outlook, we bring to you the story of Zanthion, a CA-based firm that is changing the face of senior care with its class-leading IoT Platform.
