PERFECT STORM FOR WEARABLES TO HELP HEALTH CARE REFORM
• Increased pressure on insurers and government services (Medicare) to control costs • 10 years ago began building a $4 Billion electronic health - record system (research based clinical advice, & added analytics tools and data from more sources – including information from a patient’s medical device)
• Payoff – mining “Big Data” may provide insights into the best treatment options for the lowest cost & find associations not predicted, or anticipated (Good or Bad)

BENEFITS OF WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY
Educate and empower patients to take control of their health Help physicians & patients monitor & diagnose disease Assist in medical procedures Allow patients to control & manage their pain Make personal fitness more fun

WHO WOULD BENEFIT IMMEDIATELY?
People who might benefit most from body-tracking wearable devices may be those least expected:
Elderly
The Infirm Chronic Illness Sufferers
Source: http://pando.com/2013/11/27/study-finds-that-the-people-most-likely-to-benefit-from-fitness-wearables-arent-using-them/
Pew Center found that 84% of people with chronic conditions use a pen and paper or rely on their memory to track their physical condition
ONLY 4% used applications or other tools on their smart phones
39
WHO WOULD BENEFIT IMMEDIATELY?
• People with chronic diseases don’t suddenly decide that they’re over it & the novelty has worn off • Tracking and self-measuring helps keep them out of the hospital
Apple’s ResearchKit software allows researchers to design apps that use built-in sensors on the iPhone + data from other wearable devices to gather health data on volunteers and help individuals follow through with important health behaviours
Researchers will be able to enroll participants remotely to create sample groups “that are order of magnitude” greater that in the past and at a fraction of the cost

EXIT – LEGACY MEDICAL DEVICES
EEG equipment for recording and monitoring brain waves for epileptic activities
Same for ECG monitor, sphygmomanometer, oximeter, & many other devices used to perform medical procedures
If they capture any data - the data remains with the device
42
BLUETOOTH ENABLED DEVICES
Put a sensor with Bluetooth technology into/or onto anything - you have a smart object! Monitoring outside the medical facility is becoming a reality, and increasingly preferred. Will be able to coordinate the capture of comprehensive physiological, electrical, chemical data about the body, in sickness and in health, intermittently ,or continuously
New era medical devices are magnitudes better than their legacy counterparts because : • Software - add/extend functions & features • No need to turn the device on or off • Not necessary to stop what you are doing to use the device
Data more meaningful to consumers & users
43
Medical devices, as endpoints, can provide openings into networks, allowing criminals to gain access and perform more far-reaching attacks and exploits on manufacturers Risk of attacks on the general public via these devices is low, and the cost of device security must be factored into the overall value of the risks being managed

1) Increased Use of Mobile Devices,
2) Medical Identify Theft
3) Anticipated Exchange of Data
Between Clinicians, Federal Agencies
& Patients
Near future there will be one national network that contains every citizen’s health record – SUCCESSFULLY addressing privacy issues would mean - individual health record could be easily accessed by an insurance company

HOW DOES TIKKER PREDICT DEATH?
To set up Tikker the wearer fills out a questionnaire by entering information about their medical history, including allergies or Illnesses They are asked whether they drink or smoke and if there are any instances of cancer,
diabetes and other diseases in their family Wearers are additionally asked about how much exercise they do, as well as how much they weigh before receiving a score Their age is deducted from the results to predict a death date and the Tikker begins the countdown

consumer expectations," and by harnessing mobile technology,
Insurers can reach & service "markets that increasingly demand
Convenience & a flexible interface.“

INSURANCE OPPORTUNITIES
87
1. Developing direct-to-consumer
relationship (apply data analytics &
more efficient underwriting)
– Can evolve into an online sales system
2. Developing a multi-channel approach
(self-service options along with an
enhanced customer experience)
