In the context of diagnosis and communication in particular, healthcare providers are using technology in new ways to make healthcare more efficient and convenient. Individuals can now be quickly and accurately screened for a number of common diseases, including diabetes and color blindness. In addition, technology allows you to extend your access to healthcare beyond your timely checkups and appointments.
