Interviewees give a frank assessment of the level of commitment from national governments around the world to mobile health in this new feature video from Mobile Health Live.  Participants give an insight into how many countries have mhealth in their national strategies, and how approaches vary from the developing world to wealthier countries.  Interviewees also explore the difference between political rhetoric and reality.

Also on the agenda is whether regulatory changes can follow government enthusiasm and interviewees mention the key changes needed from government. Among those featured on the video are UNICEF's Sean Blaschke (pictured), as well as representatives from the South African government, Filipino mobile operator Smart Communications, Pricewaterhouse Coopers and the Continua Health Alliance.
