Al mismo tiempo, la fundaci\u00f3n implementa iniciativas para que sus proyectos apoyados en los dispositivos como tel\u00e9fonos inteligentes, puedan establecerse en zonas aisladas y con escasa oportunidad de gozar de servicios de salud p\u00fablica. Gracias al uso de aplicaciones virtuales, se pueden monitorear y dar seguimiento constante a signos vitales como la frecuencia cardiaca y el nivel de glucosa para que el paciente tenga una organizaci\u00f3n personalizada de su estilo de vida. Pr\u00f3ximamente habr\u00e1 mejoras en infraestructura que permita desenvolver tecnolog\u00edas basadas en el Big Data e Inteligencia Artificial para tomar decisiones y soluciones de manera autom\u00e1tica e intercambiar informaci\u00f3n cl\u00ednica entre cualquier centro de salud.
