June 27, 2018More than six million U.S. consumers will use PERS devices by 2021Speakers at Connected Health Summit include executives from IBM, Uber, MDLIVE, Care Innovations, Alarm.com, GreatCall, and more New connected health research from Parks Associates released today estimates that more than six million people will use a PERS (Personal Emergency Response Systems) device by 2021. The number of users will double from 3.36 million at the end of 2017, with growth due to new BYOD wearable/watch options and smartphone-based professionally monitored services such as GreatCall. The firm will analyze innovations and consumer demand in connected health at the fifth-annual Connected Health Summit: Engaging Consumers, August 28-30 at the Manchester Grand Hyatt in San Diego. “Growth in elderly populations account for some, by not all, of the growth in the PERS market,” said Jennifer Kent, Director, Research Quality & Product Development, Parks Associates. “Products such as fitness trackers and smart watches with user-centric designs have put pressure on PERS manufacturers to improve designs and incorporate smart features into their solutions. In addition, partnerships from companies such as MobileHelp and Samsung are expanding the traditional notion of PERS by offering subscribers a Samsung Gear S3 smart watch as their PERS device. At Connected Health Summit, we will examine how these new designs and programs will impact consumer adoption and usage of PERS solutions.”
The conference features keynotes from Deborah DiSanzo, General Manager, IBM Watson, and Christopher Weber, General Manager of Uber Health, Uber.
