DISRUPTION OF HEALTHCARE OJACNTUOABREYR 2018
There is no doubt that change is coming to health care. Exponential technologies are helping to drive that change by making care delivery less expensive, more efficient, and more accessible on a global basis. Consider: Beginning in 1999, scientists spent five months and approximately USD $300 million to generate the first initial “draft” of a human genome sequence. The cost to generate a human genome sequence is now less than USD $1,000,79 and could eventually drop to less than USD $1. In coming years, exponential technologies have the potential to dramatically disrupt the systems and processes that have historically defined the industry (Figure 5).
