Precision health is an emerging movement that combines all available data on an individual in order to offer more effective, targeted healthcare. Our health is known to be related to a wide variety of factors beyond just our medical history and treatment, including prior conditions, genetic factors, social circumstances and activity.
As more data is captured from a variety of sources and pulled into electronic health records, clinicians and other healthcare professionals will have a holistic view of patients’ health, enabling them to identify risks and provide recommendations that are tailored to each individual.
Precision Driven Health is working towards making this model a reality by researching and developing digital tools that give people the knowledge to better manage their health or the health of patients.
