Manal Abdelmalek joins the Surfers to describe long-term changes in patient management that improved diagnostic and telecommunication technologies can drive in response to new COVID-19 induced challenges.
How must we adapt to the changes in patient management caused by COVID-19? The Surfers, spurred by creative ideas from guest Manal Abdelmalek, think about ways to re-engineer patient communication and treatment, including innovations in patient-management and out-of-office diagnostics. Whether discussing "de-livery" vans loaded with complete sets of diagnostic tools or the use of colors, icons, and one-letter code to convey the results of lab tests, the Surfers surface an array of creative concepts for our future.
