There will be a hybrid set of offerings for medicine and mental health consultations depending on the condition of the patient and the distance to travel. Providers of new health technologies need be HIPAA compliant.Apple became compliant in eight weeks with the initial launch of their health application. There is a reincarnation of fall detection with wearables and home sensing technologies using voice, radar, and AI.

Until 2018, the only way to interact with a technology was to type, swipe, pinch, or zoom.
