5G-enabled technologies will deliver significant improvements across society – including saving the NHS almost £1billion per year, according to new economic modelling.
The continued roll-out of 5G within the NHS will result in higher quality remote check-ups and patient monitoring, reducing the need for GP and hospital visits.
Energy and railways were identified as other key areas that will benefit from the roll-out, according to the modelling from economists at WPI Economics, commissioned by Vodafone UK.
