The article from the Medical Futurist outlines seven essential features of an ideal digital health platform. These features include addressing real-life patient or clinical needs, focusing on specific areas for deeper impact, involving patients in the development process, integrating medical professionals for evidence-based practices, backing the platform with scientific research and clinical validation, translating user data into actionable insights, and prioritizing data privacy and security.
