The Playbook is a necessary, action-oriented guide that anyone working in digital health can pick up and use to solve their problems today. Had it been available during my time in the federal government, this would have been a go-to resource when I was building digital health programs.

With the Covid-19 pandemic, there is a greater emphasis than ever on the use of telehealth and remote patient monitoring, and digital health plays a key role in supporting these efforts. The Playbook will be a key resource, helping drive the effective, safe, and equitable adoption of digital measures in clinical trials, patient care, and public health surveillance.

A central message of The Playbook is to develop measures that matter to patients. I believe The Playbook sets the foundation to drive the digital medicine field towards reaching its full potential of impacting meaningful change in a person’s lived experience with a disease.

I plan on using The Playbook to train our internal teams and guide our external partners, starting immediately. This resource will be critical to establishing the shared framework that is absolutely necessary for successfully advancing the use of digital clinical measures in clinical trials.
