#### Medical technology companies that have traditionally focused on developing hardware such as surgical and diagnostic equipment, infusion pumps and other medical devices are shifting their focus toward software, data collection and advanced analytics, according to the new Deloitte Center for Health Solutions report.

“To stay relevant in the future of health and be in a position to embrace new care models, MedTech companies should consider partnering much more closely with consumer technology companies so they can continue innovating across the complete patient journey and clinician experience,” said Pedro Arboleda, managing director, Deloitte Consulting, in a statement.
