  "While genomics and nano technology are clearly hallmarks of change in the technology field, I believe the most innovative healthcare product of 2014 is in the area of basic lab testing. The DNA Medical Institute (DMI) has gotten a lot of attention with its handheld device that is capable of running multiple lab tests within minutes using a single drop of blood. The technology will clearly accelerate the transformation of care delivery as we move services from the hospital to the living room. The DMI device and other similar technologies are moving us to a new frontier by markedly expanding our notion of biometric monitoring. Through this technology, clinicians will have the ability to monitor a host of medical problems on a continuous basis. This will truly change how, what, where and -- perhaps most importantly -- when care is delivered. Tying this technology to other evolving biometric capabilities represents yet another transformational moment in our care delivery journey."
-Kevin Fickensher, M.D., President, Healthcare Division AMC Health
