The Digitization of Healthcare illustrates the potential
benefits and challenges for all those involved in delivering care
to the patient. The incursion of IT has disrupted the value chain
and changed business models for companies working in the health
sector, and also raised ethical issues and new paradigms about
delivering care. This book illustrates the rise of patient
empowerment through the development of patient communities such
as PatientLikeMe, and medical collaborate platforms such as
DockCheck, thus providing a necessary tool to patients,
caregivers and academics alike.
