Apple's recent pacts with big-name healthcare systems might be poised to disrupt the healthcare industry, according to an article on the Healthcare Finance website.
A recent Harvard Business Review opinion piece by David Blumenthal, MD, who served as the National Coordinator for Health IT from 2009 to April 2011, says Apple's healthcare move "could herald truly disruptive change in the U.S. healthcare system."
The idea is to give patients easier access to their own data.
"It could liberate healthcare data for game-changing new uses, including empowering patients as never before," Blumenthal wrote.
