patient monitoring will save the world’s healthcare systems up to $36

by 2018, according to a <a

projection by Juniper Research</strong></a>. The firm says North America
will
account for a little over three quarters of the savings, with Western
Europe
making up the next biggest chunk.</p>

accountable
care, especially in the United States, will lead to wider adoption of
remote
cardiac monitoring and remote monitoring for chronic diseases. The $36
billion
figure is their most optimistic projection. On the other hand, <a

recent survey by Spyglass Consulting</strong></a> found that more than half
of
accountable care organizations were still unsure about the savings inherent
in
remote patient monitoring.</p>
<p>“With accountable care the delivery of healthcare funding is linked
more
directly to the health of the patient or individual, rather than being
based
upon the cost of treatment,” the firm writes in a whitepaper.
“Even
though remote patient monitoring, particularly for chronic diseases, is
still
at a very early stage in the development cycle, it fits well with new
healthcare
practices and the goal of keeping patients out of hospital.”</p>
<p>The report goes on to say that smartphones and connected devices will
grow
more rapidly than dedicated, non-smartphone-connected mobile health
devices.
It also suggests that the most powerful way to advance mobile health will
be
to prove these cost-savings to healthcare funders.</p>
<p>Juniper also looked at the mobile fitness market, finding “robust
growth driven
by a motivated user-base and coherent product offering from several
players,”
