and human factors engineering through full scale production and integrated supply chain management.
Hans Jensen, Medicom Senior Business Development Manger will present, ‘Hands-On Approach to Developing
an Optimized Connected Drug Delivery Device System.’ During the session, he will share the key benefits of
electronic-enabled drug delivery devices, as well as connected devices, with examples and experiences from
various projects. Since connected health is in its emergent stages, uncertainty exists regarding things such as
data privacy and regulations, to name a few. The audience will gain insight into dealing with these aspects of
bringing a connected health system to market.

the rising drug costs, healthcare payers seek justification that the drugs are cost effective and improve patient
outcomes,” commented Bill Welch, Chief Technology Officer. “New opportunities for these increasingly
challenging requirements are found when companies begin incorporating electronics, mobile apps, and cloud
databases to create device ecosystems.”
