Scaling digital health starts here
Access two authoritative new reports from MIT Technology Review Insights and Economist Impact featuring global perspectives, expert insights, and data-driven analysis on the future of digital health.
MIT technology review report
An MIT study on how integrated data ecosystems are reshaping global healthcare.
Integrated digital health is rapidly becoming a strategic priority for health systems worldwide. As organizations face rising clinical complexity, workforce shortages, and fragmented data environments, the ability to connect information across the care continuum is now fundamental to delivering better outcomes at scale.
The MIT Technology Review Insights report delivers a rigorous, global analysis of how healthcare organizations are progressing toward digitally integrated, data-driven systems. Based on in-depth interviews with senior healthcare leaders, cross-industry case studies, and a survey of stakeholders across multiple markets, the study examines both the opportunities and operational realities of scaling digital health at system level.
Over 50% of healthcare leaders believe in interoperability is within reach - if security and usability go hand in hand
Economist Impact Report: Digital Health Barometer
How 10 global health systems are scaling digital innovation
The 2023 Digital Health Barometer by Economist Impact provides one of the most comprehensive benchmarks of digital health readiness worldwide. Drawing on a ten-country assessment—Australia, Brazil, France, Germany, Japan, Mexico, South Korea, Spain, the UK and the US—combined with expert interviews, the study evaluates how well national health systems are positioned to adopt and scale digital health technologies.
With chronic diseases rising globally and health workforce shortages projected to reach 11 million by 2030, digital health has become a strategic priority. Yet despite clear potential across AI, remote monitoring, data analytics, and digital therapeutics, many systems still struggle with interoperability, workforce readiness, and equitable access.
The Barometer reveals where countries are progressing, where they lag, and what leaders must prioritize to unlock the full potential of digital health—grounded in real-world examples from the field.
