Consumer Technology AssociationMajor companies in the medtech space — including Philips, Google and ResMed — are among those joining the Consumer Technology Association’s new digital therapeutics standards initiative.

“With the COVID-19 pandemic, we are seeing faster innovation across all aspects of digital health including digital therapeutics,” said Gary Shapiro, CEO of the CTA.

“This field takes the application of technology beyond just wellness tracking. Companies are now developing solutions that can manage pain, allergies and even address mental health problems.
