Abstract
As we enter the information age of health care, digital health technologies offer
significant opportunities to optimize both clinical care delivery and clinical research.
Despite their potential, the use of such information technologies in clinical care
and research faces major data quality, privacy, and regulatory concerns. In hopes
of addressing both the promise and challenges facing digital health technologies in
the transformation of health care, we convened a think tank meeting with academic,
industry, and regulatory representatives in December 2016 in Washington, DC. In this
paper, we summarize the proceedings of the think tank meeting and aim to delineate
a framework for appropriately using digital health technologies in healthcare delivery
and research.
