The Health Innovators is very excited to host an evening where a group of panelists will present their current perspectives on how new technology innovation can provide more effective care for senior citizens. It is estimated that 3,000,000 baby boomers will reach retirement in the next 20 years, which is sparking a need for technology to supplement the available labor bandwidth of medical practicioners.
