Health technology in primary health care: a path to promote health care delivery

[excerpt] Health technology is a still-evolving field in Peru. These two examples show how mHealth can provide new approaches for diagnosing and reducing morbidity from NCDs. In order to fully benefit from mHealth, Peru needs a collective effort that involves broad-based support from governmental sectors and private organizations, as well as incorporates community feedback. I am positive that health technology will reform health delivery in Peru and will be a driving force to make the health care sector more sustainable.
