The speakers have been carefully chosen who work at the field level and include clinicians and technologists who are currently using technology.
In the rapidly evolving landscape of healthcare, Digital Health has emerged as a transformative force, empowering individuals to take charge of their own health and wellness through selfcare practices. This session explores the intersection of Digital Health and selfcare, examining how technological innovations are reshaping the dynamics of patient engagement and healthcare delivery. Specifically, we will delve into the question of to what extent Digital Health can replace traditional healthcare providers in primary care setting by leveraging AI Chatbots given that we have an acute shortage of family physicians. By analyzing various levels of intervention, from basic health monitoring to advanced diagnostic tools and telemedicine platforms, we aim to elucidate the potential roles, risks, and limitations of Digital Health in augmenting or substituting the role of doctors at primary care especially in the low and middle-income countries where doctors are unwilling to go in remote areas. Can we think loud about replacing doctors for primary care and prevention and is it feasible?
