Abstract
mHealth affords the ability to link patient-generated data with electronic health records that incorporate various forms of clinical decision support systems. The evolution of the mHealth market indicates that citizens are interested in using mobile tools to manage their health, and the growing emphasis on patient engagement in their care makes mHealth attractive to healthcare systems. In addition to patients, care providers, and health researchers, other stakeholders such as health plans, government payors, pharmaceutical and device manufacturers, and regulators have an interest in – and potentially significant influence over – the development and maturation of the mHealth market. This panel will explore mHealth stakeholder interests, including:
• Stakeholders’ priorities and why are they important
• How healthcare delivery may be affected as mHealth adoption grows
• How healthcare systems around the globe may incentivize the appropriate use of mHealth
Carolyn Petersen will explore the intersection of citizen interest, patient advocacy, and healthcare system facilitation of patient-centered care supported by mHealth.

Samantha Adams will look at emerging trends in Europe, including concrete developments in countries such as the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, as well as policy changes at the European level.
