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- https://www.springer.com/journal/10389). All contributions will then be subject to a double-blind review.
