While funding has slowed compared to the 2021 boom, interest remains high, particularly in artificial intelligence (AI). Consolidation is expected, with digital health companies being potential acquisition targets. Evaluating the effectiveness of digital health solutions becomes crucial as some startups mature. The development of AI infrastructure in healthcare continues, with a focus on integration, safety standards, and transparency. Cybersecurity is a top concern, prompting the need for enhanced measures and potential state regulations. As the industry navigates these challenges, a steady pace of innovation is anticipated.
