According to the blog, these include the effectiveness of wireless technology in health programs; the importance of policy, infrastructure, and ownership; and the need for health literacy in any intervention. Noting "the Summit has grown from 800 attendees to thousands" in four years, the blog adds that more information about the meeting is available online at mhealthsummit.org (12/18).
