WASHINGTON, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Trusted Future today published a comprehensive national survey of 2,414 Americans to better understand how consumers are using connected health technologies to improve health, the barriers they feel must be overcome, and the potential steps policymakers can take to further improve outcomes from digital health technology.
The survey found that Americans are adopting a broad range of connected health technologies to improve their daily lives, and believe emerging technologies hold great promise for helping people improve health outcomes, live healthier lifestyles, improve preventative care, and gain access to remote care anytime, anywhere. But to enable these health gains — and help Americans live longer and healthier lives — consumers need to be able to trust that their technologies will be effective at protecting their most sensitive health data.
Key findings of the survey include:
Ken Gude, Executive Director of Trusted Future:
“Consumers see connected health technologies as beneficial and believe they can have positive impacts for society by expanding access to healthcare and drastically improving health outcomes, but high in their minds is whether they can trust them. They need to be able to trust that these incredible technologies are not just effective and affordable, but that they are designed to protect their privacy and data security. Even though we are still in the early stages of connected health technology, consumers see the impact, believe in the potential, and want policymakers to support comprehensive privacy protections and strong encryption to build trust in their adoption.”
