What is SaaS, and how are life science companies using it today?
In today's digital age, Software as a Service (SaaS) has emerged as a cornerstone of cloud computing, transforming how businesses and individuals access and utilize software applications.
This cloud-based software deployment model has become increasingly popular due to its accessibility, cost-effectiveness, and scalability. Now, SaaS is making significant inroads in the pharmaceutical and life sciences industries, offering solutions to longstanding challenges and driving innovation.
Back to Basics: Remote patient monitoring
Remote patient monitoring programs and technologies are becoming increasingly popular, backed by growing clinical evidence showing numerous benefits to patients and providers. While remote patient monitoring (RPM) isn’t new, it’s evolving quickly due to the regulatory push to expand access to care during the COVID-19 pandemic. Coupled with the fact that the digital health market is poised to more than double by 2026, providers and patients have a greater ability to track vitals between visits, and both centralized and decentralized clinical trials rely on remote data collection now more than ever. While there is tremendous potential upside, some barriers and risks are inherent in this digital process. Human-centered design and strategic implementation can ensure that RPM in clinical trials is both beneficial and cost effective.
