Value of Medical Technology

We help PATIENTS

Medical technologies enable the early and accurate diagnosis of health problems, facilitating timely intervention and improving outcomes. Innovative products can replace, repair and sustain failing body functions, while telemedicine and connected devices allow remote monitoring of patient’s conditions. By accelerating recovery and keeping people healthy, modern medical technologies support people in living full and active lives.

We support HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS

Timely and accurate diagnostic information empowers healthcare professionals to make clinical decisions that optimize patient outcomes. By reducing patient recovery times and surgical complication rates, the medical technology sector helps ease the pressure on healthcare professionals by reducing demand. In addition, by freeing healthcare professionals to focus on tasks where they add most value, we support workplace satisfaction.

We improve HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS AND SOCIETY

By helping citizens to stay socially and economically active, and by preventing serious complications of chronic disease, medical technologies can add value to healthcare systems and to society. Medical technology innovations help to deliver efficiency and enhance the sustainability of healthcare. Our industry is facilitating advances in healthcare deliver by bringing the latest benefits of big data and machine learning to clinics all sizes.
