I grow up thinking that if I get to invent something I would make phone dialers visible to the receiving party. I always thought that was a bright idea. Technology arrived earlier than I could lay my hands on the drafting board. Now there is 3G to 4G technology via mobile phones, teleconferencing, Skype, Google Talk, YM, etc.
If we are to look into the future of health care for Americans, what is in store for us?
Earlier we discussed the strong possibility that medicine will get more personalized. The drugs we need will be custom-made for our individual needs.
The farthest conventional medicine can go so far is to base the dose according to our race, weight, height, pertinent laboratory findings (such as blood sugar and creatinine levels) and, perhaps, our own previous reaction to other drugs.
It has never gotten as personal as to adapt according to our genetic make-up or our individual body chemistry composition.
1. Customized Care
The practice of medicine will find a way to address the growing incongruence of drugs to individual needs.
Aside from customized treatments, food will become suited to individual taste and needs. Many of today's illness are brought about by unhealthy lifestyle. Diabetes, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, renal diseases, are strongly influenced by the consumption habit of Americans.
Customized treatment can then reach the supermarkets. The grocers of old will be about computer-generated data reminding us of what we ought to be eating and buying. Talk about corporate social responsibility or supermarket service! This way profit takes a backseat to customer welfare.
Come to think of it, a healthy customer means more profit in the long run. The customer will avoid staying home because of illness. They are expected to be productive and therefore capable of purchasing more items. A longer lifespan for every customer means more decades of quality service and customer relations.

2. Longevity: More Years Packed for Everyone
The trend for years now is a growing population of baby-boomers. With more elderlies in the twilight of their years, health care systems will have to adapt aggressively to address the geriatric population.

Elderlies are often taking multiple medications. Polypharmacy by itself causes a lot of complications. Elderlies have to make adjustments brought about by their body changes. They are more prone to injuries owing to decrease in visual acuity, impaired hearing, decreased flexibility of joints, muscle weakness, and environmental barriers.

The future of American health care system will be strained by the growing needs of a ballooning elderly population.
3. Memory Boosters
With a growing elderly population comes the need for better quality of life. Of what use is rich experience for a person who cannot remember the good times?
At the very least, dementia or memory gaps can pose a threat to an elderly's safety. They may forget to turn off the stove or lose important details for emergencies. They might even forget their own name.
Memory boosters will then be an important product for the future.
