As mobile phone users continue to purchase more unlimited text and data plans, the expansion of mHealth technology to consumers is almost guaranteed to continue. At my company, Globaltel Media, we've seen our healthcare customers begin to develop some very useful and interesting SMS-based communications systems. From replacing expensive pager systems to appointment reminders and mobile diagnostics via texting, SMS messaging provides an ideal path of communication for both healthcare workers and patients. It is important to remember that although smartphones are certainly becoming more popular and affordable, the vast majority of the population still uses basic mobile technology. To efficiently access the greatest number of users, SMS messaging is hands down the way to go. Thanks for your article! Thanks for the excellent article on the growing mHealth space.
