Digital health innovation & commercialization framework

Digital health is transforming healthcare by improving our ability to accurately diagnose and treat diseases, enabling innovating care models, and making healthcare services more accessible.,It holds the potential to deliver against the quadruple aim of healthcafre -- improving the health-of populations, enhancing the experience of care for individuals, lowering the cost of health care, and enhancing the experience of clinicians.¹ The broad scope of digital health encompasses many technologies that can deliver breakthrough solutions to consumers, health systems, providers, healthcare suppliers, life science companies, etc. Thus, digital health falls at the intersection of healthcare IT, consumer healthcare, medical devices, pharmaceutical products, and other allied products and services. While there are frameworks and established practices to develop and commercialize innovation in these respective categories, similar practices and knowledge are either limited or fragmented in digital health space. This thesis aims to explore and create a framework for developing and commercializing digital health innovation by leveraging and integrating established and emerging practices from the traditional medical industries and modern digital industries.
