Dr. Kastner discusses expanding quality care to the home
Healthcare in the future will be very much dependent on technology. It is the quality which is provided by data. It is provided by automated interpretation of that data, automated monitoring of our own practice, which then feeds us and the patient with the information which we need to make the right decision."

Dr. Rosen examines how COVID-19 has accelerated telehealth
One of the real barriers to doing telemedicine has always been the fear of legal issues, lawsuits, hyper violations - and I think a lot of that has been reduced during COVID and has proven to be helpful to help medical departments extend into this area."

Dr. Jackman speaks about bringing information to the physician’s fingertips

Dr. Postmus discusses harnessing information and the future of cancer care
The information that is available is so much larger that it will definitely improve the way we are dealing with patients. But on the other hand, it makes it all much more complex. For that, technical solutions are definitely needed just to create the enormous stream of information canalized in a way that it is dealable with."
