Over the past decade, pharma’s interaction with digital health has grown more sophisticated and purposeful. In the last year however, amongst the general economic upheaval that 2022 ushered in, innovation wrapped around the drug has become the object of budgetary scrutiny in pharmaceutical companies. In many ways, the scrutiny is justified; a great number of digital health initiatives backed by the pharmaceutical industry have yet to provide a return on investment, demonstrate significant adoption, or prove true value to the end user. 

‍

So why continue to invest in digital health at a time when budgets are shrinking?

‍
