The Agenda - coming up this week at HealthXL

Every week, HealthXL communities connect to break down some of the major challenges and opportunities in digital health. If you are interested in joining any of these meetings, just click through the link to request access. However, even if you can't make a meeting, keep an eye out for the key takeaways, which will be published later this week. 

As many companies have found, you might create an excellent digital but it won't have much of an impact if no one uses it. Adoption, or more specifically getting patients and doctors to start using and engaging with digital therapeutics (DTx) is one of the biggest challenges. On Tuesday, May 24, we will look at how we can approach the problem and how some have already solved it.  

Also on Tuesday, we will hold a session on evidence generation strategy for digital health in neurology, led by Richelle Flanagan, the founder of My Moves Matter. A disease area that requires a medical approach that goes beyond the drug, neurology could prove amenable to add on solutions to standardized care and practices. However, getting the proof points for the clinical and economic benefits to convince payers and physicians remains a huge challenge

Getting health care professionals and patients to adopt your digital health solutions is one of the major challenges in oncology. On Thursday, May 25, in the first meeting of our sprint series on Virtual Care in Oncology: HCPs and Patients Adoption, we will dig into the issues around industry perception and reception.

Meanwhile, in Barcelona, HealthXL will be holding a global gathering that brings together some of the brightest minds in digital health to look at what the future of DTx in Europe look like, what we can learn from models such as German’s Digital Health Applications (DiGA) regulatory regime, and what is next for the patient experience. If you cannot make it to the gathering in person, keep an eye out for some of the key takeaways which will be on the platform over the next couple of weeks.
