Tie-up Of Health Startups With Emerging Technologies

After the introduction of three-year Prohealth program using AI by Apollo Hospitals, it is estimated that the health sector will gradually grow to be a 350 billion dollar market. If we talk about the growth of jobs, then it will lead to around 40 million jobs in the coming years.

 

Well, experts say that the growth of health startups in Indian markets shows that people of the country will soon start using and depend on robots in hospitals, biotechnology to generate something new, genomics and also clinics to serve health-related issues. Just like Apollo hospitals, AI can be used to detect, store, and evaluate the diseases with a high level of accuracy while the app associated with it will monitor the movement and functioning of the body.

As there are two sides to a coin, the other side of the technology-dependent sector is to put the privacy and security of personal details at risk. The digital transmission of the data with respect to any field can be fatal, and all the sectors must take it with full responsibility. Interestingly, the sector is growing gradually but do you think the secured protocols and quality-assurance are present there?
