With technological improvements, there have been many changes to many industries. Still, and for some most importantly, the field of healthcare is experiencing rapid developments.

Technology is vital to our daily lives and impacts what we do. Technology brings us together and provides tools to promote developmental use, and exchange information to make tasks more manageable in order to solve problems. When technology advances our lives it makes things even more convenient, we must emphasize how beneficial it is to our lives so as not to forget its importance.

The question is: How much has technology improved our daily lives? Modern technology has paved the way for multi-functional devices like smartwatches and smartphones. As for computers, they are faster, more transportable, and higher-powered than ever before. With all of these changes happening, technology has also made our lives easier, faster, better, and more fun.

According to cbinsights, new advances in analytics and scanning systems are making surgeries more accurate. Digital distribution programs are now developing to make it simpler and quicker for prescriptions to have the correct dosage and on time. Also, communications systems make it quicker for patients to get in touch with their physicians. Which is an especially useful attribute during this pandemic, since many patients need to have examinations at home.

Technology has become a part of our world in a way such that it is the new normal. According to medicalfuturist, "The future of healthcare lies in working hand-in-hand with the technology, and healthcare workers have to embrace emerging healthcare technologies to stay relevant in the coming years." Now that we are making and accepting new inventions, the world of health care seems to have significantly improved.

For example, medical technologies like minimally invasive surgeries, better monitoring systems, and more comfortable scanning equipment allow patients to not spend much time in recovery and more time experiencing a wholesome life. According to healthcareweekly, "Artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, voice search, chatbots and virtual reality (VR) are among the most promising health technologies in 2021. For the longest time, healthcare executives have been dissatisfied with the lack of technology stacks and true marketing personalization solutions."

Technology in healthcare is essential because the doctors' ability to store, share, and analyze information ties into the improvement. The use of technology develops provider capabilities and patient access while enhancing the quality of life for some patients and saving others' lives.
