It seems that since the corona crisis started in 2020, everyone is talking about digital health. But what is digital health? In an interview with the Jerusalem Post, Gilad Tisona says that “digital healthcare is an innovative technological field which integrates high-tech and the world of healthcare for the benefit of public health”
Along with the rise of the digital health phenomenon, many concerns have been raised about the possible end of (necessary) human contact in medicine. “I do not think health apps will replace human contact,” says Gilad Tisona. “The goal of digital health is to help physicians, not to replace them.”
