How can the health-care industry create incentives and provide technology to get more Americans to live healthier lifestyles? That was the key question at the Connected Health Summit this week in San Diego, organized by Dallas-based industry research firm Parks Associates.

Its research found that only 23 percent of U.S. consumers are actively engaged in living a healthy lifestyle. (Freeman, 9/2)
