“This survey indicates the full availability of people to become part of the solution to global health issues, with the support of all types of technology, “said Eric Dishman , Intel Fellow and General Manager at Health and Life Sciences Group at Intel.” Almost everyone seems to accept the idea of ??a future where you can get help health care outside of hospitals, to share in anonymous personal information to improve performance and customize all aspects of care specific to the genetic structure of each individual. “
Intel Research has revealed that the main expectations in respect of health care in hitech key focus on services that are more tailored to individual behaviors and biological profiles, which offer the freedom to get the treatment they need when and where it is most appropriate.

With the progress in technology for health care in remote and self-monitoring tools, it is now possible to adopt technologies that allow you to maintain contact with the medical staff in new ways, such as through sensors that transmit health information in real time .
