The healthcare IT innovation of tomorrow is here today and has only started to scratch the surface of  what is possible for the consumer (aka, patients), including rapid improvements to: digital health, (e.g., telehealth,  telemedicine, and teletherapy), artificial intelligence and machine learning, as well as remote patient monitoring (via wearable devices, augmented reality and mobile health). Additionally, the 21st Century Cures Act  is paving the way to give healthcare consumers access to their health information across their specialty providers and even on their smart phones.

With all this innovation, there is an abundance of new technology risks that are lurking and require attention to maintain regulatory compliance, to prevent inside and outside threats, while offering a unique and improved customer experience.
