It is estimated that 80 percent of our health is governed by our behavior. This is particularly true for chronic diseases. Yet chronic diseases are notoriously resistant to the traditional model of treatment, which relies on infrequent interactions with healthcare professionals. AndHealth is changing that model via a mobile app that provides continuous support from specialist physicians and health coaches, facilitating patient participation and behavioral modifications to target the root cause of chronic disease and to reverse such conditions. In this episode, King & Spalding partner Bob Cooper talks to AndHealth founder and CEO Matt Scantland about this revolutionary development and what it and other digital technologies mean for the future of healthcare.
