User talk:Alex K. Tran/Digital health

For my topic, I want to focus on Digital health and the progress that is being made this year in terms of wireless devices, telemedicine, software, and cybersecurity. In addition, I want to talk about the improvements being made to key health technologies such as heart disease. A big reason I want to choose this topic is due to the fact that the ethics of the issue interests me. On top of that, I am doing research on the topic for another project that I am working on.

As I mentioned in the page for Digital health... "In 2019, the FDA published a Digital Health Innovation Action Plan that would reduce inefficiencies for physicians in an effort to cut overhead costs, improve access, increase quality of service, and make medicine more easily adapted for each person. Topics within the innovation plan are wireless devices, telemedicine, software, and cybersecurity, among others." This will be the main umbrella of my topic, focusing on change within government as well.
