Parks Associates: Only 13-14% of U.S. Broadband Households Show Interest in New Health Management Services

DALLAS, TX — (Marketwired) — 08/23/16 — shows that only 13-14% of U.S. broadband households express interest in several new health management services, such as remote health monitoring, personal health coaching, or wearables that collect data for healthcare providers.

Options, such as free trials and the promise of no long-term contract, can help boost overall interest and adoption of these services.
