  • More about Digital Health Care outside of Traditional Clinical Settings: Ethical, Legal, and Regulatory Challenges and Opportunities

The delivery of healthcare is moving away from clinics and hospitals towards the home, with patients interacting with digital products at every stage of their care. This volume explores the ethical, legal, regulatory, and reimbursement impacts of this shift.

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 228 pages

Publisher: Cambridge University Press


The delivery of healthcare is undergoing a significant transition, moving away from traditional clinic-based settings and towards home-based care. This shift has been accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has highlighted the importance of remote healthcare and digital technologies in providing medical assistance. In the future, patients can expect to interact with digital products at every stage of their care, from monitoring their health through wearable sensors to conducting self-tests before virtual consultations with physicians. Additionally, smart pills and other digital devices will be used to track medication adherence and provide real-time feedback to healthcare providers.

This shift towards at-home digital healthcare has significant ethical, legal, regulatory, and reimbursement implications. It raises questions about the privacy and security of patient data, the potential for bias in remote diagnosis, and the reimbursement policies that support this new model of care.

This volume aims to explore the explosion of at-home digital health care and its impact on the healthcare system. It provides insights into the ethical, legal, regulatory, and reimbursement challenges associated with this shift and offers recommendations for addressing these issues. The book also highlights the potential benefits of at-home digital healthcare, such as increased patient convenience, improved access to care, and better management of chronic conditions.

In conclusion, the delivery of healthcare is undergoing a transformative shift towards home-based care, driven by the increasing adoption of digital technologies. While this shift presents new opportunities for innovation and improved patient outcomes, it also requires careful consideration of ethical, legal, regulatory, and reimbursement challenges. By addressing these challenges, we can ensure that at-home digital healthcare becomes a sustainable and effective part of the healthcare system.
