=====================================
*** Scope ***

Healthcare delivery experiences a rapid change from traditional care processes towards the use of
digital health interventions and personalized medicine facilitated by them. Hospitals and health care
providers adopt information systems, electronic health records and telemedicine solutions for more
efficient workflows and care delivery both within and beyond institutions. Patients nowadays can
choose from a wide range of digital health applications such as wearables and mobile phone
applications supporting their self-management, health and well-being.
However, barriers are still impeding a large-scale, sustainable implementation of these digital health
innovations. This issue persists regardless of whether such innovations relate to individual patients or
health care professionals in their working environment (micro level), their respective wider societal
structure (meso level), the regulatory or financial framework of the health care system (macro level)
or the technology to be implemented.
Our workshop seeks for submissions presenting strategies for the successful implementation of digital
health solutions while considering barriers on one or more of these levels. We welcome abstracts
about research projects, practical findings, implementation evaluation results, and strategies you
employed to overcome implementation barriers in your daily work. Please elaborate how you
developed your particular implementation strategy and what the next steps to full-scale
implementation will be.
Topics may include, but are not limited to:
- Telemedicine
- Telehealth
- eHealth
- Digital health
- Digitally supported care models
- Health Information Systems
- Electronic Health Records
- Digital Health at home – ambient assisted living solutions

*** Formal Requirements ***
The abstract submitted should be no longer than one A4-page. Accepted abstracts will be presented at
the workshop as basis for joint discussion on how to successfully overcome different barriers. Upon
participating in the workshop, each presenter has the option to have a full-text version of her/his
abstract published in a special Issue of the Journal of Public Health (Springer). All contributions will
then be subject to a double-blind review.
For further information regarding the workshop and subsequent publication opportunities, please
contact us via workshop@care4saxony.de<mailto:workshop@care4saxony.de>.
