For a patient, hospital typically sucks. On that count and for the well being of the patient it is imperative for the hospitals to continuously innovate and provide improving experiences for both the patients and care givers. Wouldn’t it be nice if patients’ mobile phones guide them to wherever they want to go? Wouldn’t it be nice if a patient is alerted if his is walking more than he should? or he isn’t wanking as much as he should? Would it be if a medical scanner recognizes who you are as you go for the scan instead of making you display a tag to say who you are? Wouldn’t it be nice if the scan result is delivered to your near and dear ones in real-time? This list goes on. iBeacon in particular, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) in general and Near Field Communication technologies make this possible.
