Artificial intelligence is all set to take medical and healthcare apps to a whole new level. this technology touches areas like self examination of patients and allows doctors to conduct complex operations without patients.It reduces the clinic visit frequency and decreases the medical costs also.

The need for health and fitness apps has been on the rise since the last couple of years. Patients can keep a track and monitor their fitness levels and doctors and hospitals can manage their administrative tasks with wearable devices. IoT contributes to better health and patient care.

Big Data helps to address the complex challenges associated with health records of the patients. Doctors can get access to medical history of patients, lab test results, and other data to manage medication lists and treatment plans.

This is an emerging technology in the medical and healthcare industry. Telemedicine can be used by patients to make video calls to doctors and have their sickness diagnosed. Without traveling to the doctor’s clinic, one can avail the suggestions for medication/treatment. It is advisable for chronic conditions.

Preserving patients’ data and critical information and making it accessible when required may be challenge for the healthcare industry. Deploying blockchain in healthcare apps can help to eradicate this problem.

Machine learning has brought autonomous robotic surgery to make the lives of doctors and patients easier. Machine learning combines visual data and motor patterns to allow machines to conduct complex surgeries.
