Implementing Digital Health in a Learning Health System

Objective #1: Determine the effectiveness of handheld imaging and digital health devices on long term health and patient-reported outcomes through pragmatic and randomized clinical trial designs. Objective #2: Assess the impact of digital health devices and remote patient monitoring (RPM) on measures of healthcare efficiency. Measures of healthcare efficiency directly related to digital health technologies and RPM include: identify which interventions can improve care; define the variations in care and; demonstrate within which patient populations digital health technologies are most effective. Objective #3: Apply integration methods for handheld imaging and digital health devices used for clinical decisions. Achieving integration and interoperability-the ability of different information technology systems and software applications to communicate and exchange data with each other-requires identification for precisely how new innovations merge into systems of care and are applied to various practice settings.
