Emerging Platform for Healthcare IT Services

From the pervasive application standpoint, healthcare IT (HIT) infrastructure and applications have become enablers to revolutionize the roles and responsibility of the healthcare professionals as well as consumers. This paper describes our research in next generation service creation systems that support pervasive healthcare applications together with additional operational management capabilities. We present a platform level solution for rapid communication session service creation by incorporating existing and new healthcare information network and operational capabilities. We also uncover and re-exam some complexity currently overlooked in large-scale trials at the national level.
