eHealth: Critical Issues in Delivering Cross-border Sustainable Healthcare Involving Patients and Healthcare Professionals
Most industries have by now made significant progress in the e-domain. One notable exception is healthcare. Healthcare globally is a clear laggard in the use of e-technologies. Paradoxically it is likely that e-health may hold the key in addressing many of the current challenges in healthcare.
Governments in both US and EU have recognised this, and are encouraging various forms of e-health solutions. We have set out to foster research in this area at the 23rd Bled eConference by hosting a special focus on e-health, with panels, workshops and sessions on e-health.
What will make this conference special is that we strongly encourage papers that bridge the gap between academia and healthcare practice. So, when you have an application that worked or failed in the e-health domain: write a paper about that and submit it.
