Information technology is completely changing the way that patients and doctors receive and translate health data. In this video, learn more about the IT movement and its impact on medicine with HealthMaker Nick Augustinos, SVP at Cardinal Health.
To the extent that information technology is everywhere around us is very important there too and I do believe it's very important. If you're thinking about big data, if you're thinking about how we started to converge all these information, I would challenge most people whether the human mind will be able to process all these information that will come to bear when we're making a diagnosis, when we decide none of the most effective treatment, I think where the practice of medicine is going to be much more effective in the future isn't helping not so much in the diagnosis but helping the patient make the right the choice for what would be the most effective path for them to come elite state of health.
