CVS Health was involved in this year’s Identity Week America as a healthcare entity invested in enhancing digital systems used by the medical profession to deliver a quality standard of patient care services.

The sector needs to assess what the new threats and deficiencies are while digital identity is evolving to increasingly bind the patient to their personal data.
