The Shift From Episodic to Continuous Care: Wearable Technology and Telemedicine in Cardiology

Discussing the integration of data from wearable technology into the electronic health record and utilizing telemedicine as a way to promote greater collaboration between the patient and their physician and health system with Jagmeet P. Singh, MD, PhD, FACC, deputy editor of JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology, and Fred Bove, MD, MACC, editor-in-chief of Cardiology magazine.
