« In the fast-paced world of medical advancement, protecting and respecting patient rights has never been more essential. 2022 is witnessing emerging trends that are revolutionizing the healthcare industry, all while ensuring patient care and autonomy is maintained. Patients Rights Coalition is at the forefront of many of these trends, working tirelessly towards incorporating these developments into their practices.
One such trend is the incorporation of telemedicine services, enabling patients to receive critical healthcare from the comfort of their own homes, thereby asserting their rights to accessibility and convenience. Empowering patients through accessible electronic health records (EHRs) is another trend, ensuring patients maintain full knowledge and control over their medical history and treatment options. Furthermore, amplified awareness around patient rights, through education and patient advocacy services, is seen as an important step towards healthcare evolution.
The advent of AI and big data in healthcare is equally noteworthy, influencing decision-making while respecting confidentiality and informed consent. There is no doubt that these trends are reshaping the healthcare landscape, solidifying the position of patients’ rights at the core of medical service provisions, and transforming the way we think about health in the 21st century. »
