This document discusses how the Internet of Things (IoT) can transform healthcare. IoT connects sensors, devices, and systems to analyze real-time data and enable remote monitoring of patients and assets. It describes how IoT can improve patient experiences and outcomes by automatically conveying clinical information, monitoring locations in real-time, and executing pre-configured decisions. IoT also allows remote care through features like automatically sending abnormal patient values to doctors and enabling virtual visits. When implemented in healthcare, IoT can reduce costs and medical errors while improving revenues, coverage, and the patient and caregiver experience.
