By a show of hands, how many of you reading this article use a mobile app to manage your health? The term digital health has gradually become part of our lives, maybe more than you realize. It allows us to schedule appointments, view our medical records and test results, consult with our healthcare professionals, control our exercise routines, closely monitor health conditions, pay our medical bills, and so much more. Many of these tasks are accessible via mobile apps on smartphones and smart watches; but what exactly is digital health and how does this emerging model for delivering health care intersect with traditional forms of administering therapies to patients?

Last month, I focused on the value and importance of ASPET Divisions. When you become a member of ASPET, you receive free membership in at least one of our 10 divisions. While absolutely a critical reason to become an ASPET member, this is just one of many benefits of membership to consider as you receive our annual reminders to renew your membership for 2025.
