Technology has been changing the face of healthcare since the NHS began, but this century has seen the acceleration of digital IT infrastructure giving the public more access to information, and an explosion of communication tools, from the maturation of the internet to handheld devices, sensors and apps. 20/20health has, through largely qualitative research, explored possibilities from telehealth (in the UK and USA) to consumer health tech, robotics and optical care to electronic patient records.
