The nation’s largest retail, payer and tech disruptors invested tens of billions of dollars in health care last year, continuing to build out their visions to transform the field. In the short term, these moves helped the companies grab market share in primary care, concierge medicine, virtual care, in-home medical services and elsewhere.
Meanwhile, tech giants like Apple and Google chose different paths, leveraging their respective health-tracking devices and platforms to help consumers collect their data in one place while the companies collaborate with the research community.
