Episode Summary
In a perfect world our health information provider would be a non-profit that worked with every technology provider, creating a single open platform that was easy and available to all. In reality, health is becoming the battleground of the mega-corporations with two of the most important technology companies, Apple and Google, right at the center of it. Join us, in this episode of The Digital Life, as we discuss the state of mHealth, and the implications of the recent forays of Apple and Google into that complex software space.
