Mobile health, supported by mobile devices, is expected to be a $26 billion industry by 2017. With over 97,000 health and fitness related mobile apps currently on Google Play and Apple App Store, and 4 million downloads per day, it is difficult to deny the rising popularity of the industry. Mobile apps can help people manage their own health and wellness, promote healthy living, and gain access to useful information when and where they need it. These tools are being adopted almost as quickly as they can be developed. This session will focus on how the promotion of these products is regulated, the current regulatory standards that apply, and important considerations for a company's promotional review committee.
Learning Objective : Define how mobile health applications are regulated; Identify the regulatory standards that apply; Describe important considerations for company promotional review committees.
