"Does it work?" Physician input is necessary to validate and obtain real-world evidence for health care technology solutions.

Three diverse physicians talk about their medical practice.

"Will I receive payment?” Physicians need to know that digital health solutions are cost-effective and tied to payment models.

A physician stands in a window-lined hallway and looks at his tablet.

"Will I be liable?" Physicians want to understand their risk before adopting new technology.

Doctors working at a table

"Will it work in my practice?" Physicians require smooth, efficient integration into daily operations.
