Has to be robotics, specifically in the area of remote surgical procedures. That along with AR/VR medical training. Being able to transport ORs by air or road for specialists to log in remotely and perform critical procedures isn't too far off and will go a long way to levelling accessibility of healthcare.

Lots of surgeons already perform surgeries remotely so it’s probably not that far off. My wife is a CRNA and anesthesia may be done remotely in the not-so-far-off future as well.

Still fairly limited to hospitals in densely populated areas. My wife had a very sad case just yesterday where a patient died en route to the hospital for a procedure because it couldn't be offered to him where he lived. Very say and countless similar cases. Next step is mobile ORs that truly broaden access ❤️

Yeah true medical access for rural areas is usually pretty poor unfortunately. They usually have the worst medical insurance in the US as well.
