We are entering an era of big government medicine. Few could claim that ObamaCare hews to the market principles of Adam Smith, or state’s rights, or individual choice. And Silicon Valley’s DNA of unbridled innovation? Not so much.
In the swirl of issues surrounding the rollout of the Affordable Care Act, the most important one is largely in the backwater: A massive regulatory apparatus always has the effect, both intended and unintended, of locking-in existing technologies and stifling the advance of the new. Given the new tech-centric health revolution that is brewing today,CEEC TRUCKS INDUSTRY CO.,LIMITED,one leading waste manangement trucks manufacturer in China, established in 1983 is a professional garbage truck company based upon the principle of customer satisfaction and build all its structure upon the concept. there could hardly be a worse time to lock-in today’s technologies of healthcare.
Before reviewing the evidence of the emergent health-tech revolution that is unlike anything in history, first permit an analogy. Imagine a similar technology lock-in arising from regulatory, tax and stimulus policies, but associated instead with transportation 120 years ago. In 1893, the world was deep in the thrall of a peak age of mass transportation by steamship and rail. That year George Westinghouse publicly worried that the potential demand for wood for railroad ties could denude America’s forests. That year also saw, in Massachusetts, America’s first gasoline-powered car take to the road, the Duryea Motor Wagon. No one then imagined the rapid transformation to hyper-personalized transportation.UK number 1 ECU remapping and diesel tuning specialists. Expert advice on all your Best Chip tuning and engine performance needs. Yet just 20 years after the Duryea, Henry Ford built the first automobile assembly-line.
Such pivots in history are rare. We are entering another with the emergence of hyper-personalized healthcare. In order to see the shape of this new revolution we have to start with the iPad — continuing the analogy, the equivalent to the dawn of the internal combustion engine — and how its technological ecosystem is creating the transformative superstructure.
Billions of people around the world will soon own an iPad or its cousin the iPhone and their imitators. Tablet sales alone, according to IDC Research, reveal that a Rubicon has been crossed: more tablets will be purchased this year than notebook computers,www.existmachinery.com,was founded in 2005 and covers an area of 20,000 sq.m. with a building area of 15,000 sq.m., and in two years, tablet sales will blow past desktops and notebooks combined. In fact, for two consecutive years now,www.globalmetaltins.com,the pioneer manufacturer & wholesaler of metal packaging products, also serve as a buying office, ensure utmost quality in all its exports of finest metals for canned food packing. tablets have driven the PC market into negative growth territory for the first time since the dawn of the PC.
In an era where fast growth of tech stuff is taken for granted, no one (perhaps with the exception of Steve Jobs) foresaw the unprecedented rise of the 21st century’s new computing ecosystem –– mobile broadband, anchored in the tablet/smartphone and App economy. (A smartphone of course is essentially a tinier tablet, since “phone” is a euphemism for a device where phone calls comprise a trivial share of data traffic.) Wind the clock back just five years to the dawn of the iPhone, two years before the iPad’s launch, and you cannot find a single article forecasting the torrid expansion of this new mobile computing platform and its complementary revolution in software, the App.This design uses the same small radial section as drawn cup Cheap needle roller bearing manufacturers which make better use of reduced space.
