Healthcare systems across the world have always been under pressure; the pandemic simply multiplied it. It has also made the pre-existing challenges of healthcare systems visible to everyone. It has come to light that during the tough times, healthcare professionals were under-equipped, underpaid, and overworked.

Cologne-based healthtech startups

While these conditions vary from one country to another, this has paved the way for the potential digitalisation of the healthcare services. It won’t be an exaggeration to say that the COVID-19 crisis has boosted both the requirement and interest in such innovative solutions. Eventually, there is a high demand than ever before for ehealth or digital health. This has led to a rise in the relevant verticals including telehealth, mhealth, and health analytics.
