This year's 14th Annual CMHC pre-conference will be hosted in collaboration with MedTech Impact on Wellness: a content & event-based brand that explores the landscape of digital health. In connecting digital health technologies to enhanced patient outcomes, MedTech fosters conversations between digital health decision-makers and medical technology leaders, while equipping medical professionals with informative digital health strategies & techniques. Given the rapid progression of medical technology and its integration into patient care, the partnership between CMHC and MedTech represents a strong commitment to improving diagnosis and treatment through innovation and evolution.
While spotlighting the most recently emerging technological & digital advancements in the industry of cardiometabolic care, the one-day symposium will review topics including big data and its role in cardiometabolic health, developments in genetic testing, medical devices, patient usage, and more. With a specific focus on real-world evidence and applications of digital health and medical technologies in cardiometabolic health, expert faculty members will guide lecture sessions that help attendees internalize and understand how to integrate technologies into practice: while improving patient compliance and understanding.
