From a cost perspective and a quality of care point of view, there are a number of different areas that will be impacted. For example, if a patient experiences an injury while staying in a facility, the organization isn't reimbursed for his/her care. So the ability for a system to see that this to happen and alert everyone, so that type of thing doesn't happen to me as a patient. The one way the US and Other government is putting pressure on that is you won't be compensated like the old days. They're going to tap into the information, and that's just one example. There are a whole bunch of things that could happen that are preventable and should be completely avoidable. After tapping into the information, That’s going to drive down the cost of healthcare.

Grow Physician-Patient Relationship
The physician-patient relationship will grow with the help of social media and mobile apps. And this all stems from the need for hospitals to keep patients healthy and out of their facilities. In the old days, hospitals made money, and the longer they keep patient there, the more they make. Analytics predicted that because of this, there will be an "explosion" of mobile applications and even social media, allowing patients to have easier access to nurses and physicians. It's about keeping patients healthy and driving down costs.
