Dear Bhinneka,

New developments in asthma treatment are showing encouraging results in improving continuity of care. What could the future hold for people living with asthma regarding trends such as opportunities in digital health?
 
Join us as we investigate what stands in the way of fostering an optimal asthma patient journey—such as treatment burdens, underdiagnosis, stigma, silos between health-care systems and the lack of integrated management of comorbidities—and learn how these hurdles can be overcome.
