Impacts of Information Technology on Patient Care and Empowerment
To be published by IGI Global in 2019 or 2020
Overview
Health care today has been irrevocably altered by patient access
to information technology. Not only to do patients seek out
health-related information using Internet-based sources, they also
expect to have access to technology that facilitates all aspects
of their health care experiences. These expectations range from
information availability prior to interaction with their health
care providers, extends into their waiting room experiences, their
physician interactions, their treatment options and choices,
procedural and decision-making matters, and subsequent follow-up
care. Gamification, Internet of Things, Mobile Computing, Big
Data, Social Media and other technologies form the core of their
expectations. More than ever, patients are empowered to shape
their own health care experiences and this trend shows no signs of
slowing down or reversing. This book provides a snapshot of
current patient experience-centered research areas and offers
ideas for the future of this field. Health-related information
technologies have created new venues for patients and their
families to interact with health care providers, actively manage
their care, subsequently experience better outcomes. These new
technologies offer new ways for physicians to partner with their
patients in improve quality of care in a transformative way. This
book examines existing challenges as well as potential
opportunities for improving patient care, empowerment,
personalization, and outcomes through emerging health information
technology.
