Abstract

Population health management (PHM) has been a discipline that studies and facilitates care delivery across a group of individuals or the general population. In the context of PHM, the life science industry has had no motivation to design drugs or devices and even offer treatment of patient management that is only effective for a distinct population segment. The primary outgrowth of the science of individuality, as well as the rising ‘wiki medicine', fully recognizes the uniqueness of the individual. Cloud computing, big data, m-health, and recently, internet of things can offer the resources to deal with numerous shortcomings such as data collection and processing, of the PHM approach, as they facilitate the propagation of the science of individuality.
