Deloitte: The Four Dimensions of Effective mHealth

1. People: Demographics. A nuanced understanding of demographics such as age, gender & income can point to technology preferences and help drive customization and targeting of users’ mHealth experiences.
2. Places: Local Infrastructure. The convergence of infrastructure needs and rapid technological development may be a tipping point for mHealth adoption.
3. Payment: Reimbursement & Regulatory. Addressing privacy & security concerns, reimbursement approaches & regulatory consistency across jurisdictions, should remove several barriers to adoption.
4. Purpose: Disease Dynamics. Fitness, wellness, care provision, disease management and complex case management can be supported by mHealth functionality, but the approach has to fit the condition.
