Abstract
Primary healthcare suffers from the single feature, single point-in-time syndrome. Physicians need \emph{long-term} data along multiple aspects of a patient's everyday health before, during and after treatment to best determine how the patient is doing. Smartphones present a scalable, easily deployable and cost-effective means for long-term monitoring of everyday health. Our work explores the importance of long-term monitoring of everyday health and proposes how smartphones can fulfill this task.
