“John Mattison at Kaiser started his presentation by encouraging everyone in the audience to hug, which got a lot of laughs but achieved his goal of emphasizing the importance of social health in succeeding in this market,” said Harry Wang, Director of Health and Mobile Product Research at Parks Associates. “John focused on personalization and consumer engagement, the key topics for the first day at the Connected Health Summit. Today we are hosting multiple sessions to examine the business models necessary for driving growth in this rapidly changing market.”
