This year's edition of the annual mHealth Summit is currently underway at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center, Washington, DC Area, USA. In its 5th year, the summit according to organizers delivers value for stakeholders across the mobile health ecosystem.   

"The event uniquely gathers healthcare and technology leaders in government, the private sector, industry, academia, providers and not-for-profit organizations from across the mobile health continuum to advance collaboration in the use of wireless technology to improve health outcomes, reduce costs and create a new paradigm in health care delivery both in the United States and abroad," organizers said.

The focus of this year's edition is the capacity of mobile health to provide health care at the right time and the right place. 
"This channel is fundamental in transforming the way health is managed and health care is delivered. It has the potential to save time and energy through every facet of the health care ecosystem- improving communications and opportunities for changes in how health and chronic conditions are managed, and providing better care with better outcomes," organizers said.
 
It added that "The mHealth Summit, the largest mobile health event in the world, brings together providers, leaders, influencers and visionaries in wireless and mobile health technologies and integration as well as those in different stages of this transition to discuss hands-on strategies, examine success stories, and explore challenges and innovations."
This year, organizers said the general program is providing the broadest and deepest coverage of the ecosystem in the world under one roof.  

A total of 6 keynotes would be delivered, in addition to 100 educational sessions, over 4000 exhibitors, and about 5,500 conference attendees.

There are so a number of exclusive co-located events this year.
