Smart Health Enterprise Architecture Framework: Focus on Motivation and Open Data Aspects

25 de novembro de 2021

The concept of smart health has emerged with the aim of improving citizens’ quality of life and better healthcare services. As the cost of medical services increases and the population ages, along with time and space constraints, existing healthcare systems are facing great challenges, such as ensuring data confidentiality, integrity and privacy and and high healthcare costs. Cities have started to invest in open data, as it permits reuse across different applications and systems, and ultimately results in better services for residents. The implementation of smart health solutions imposes a set of requirement, best practices, concerns and motivations. On the other hand, as cities start to open up the massive quantities of information that they produce, there is the opportunity for smart health to utilize that data to increase systems efficiency. We conducted a systematic literature review with the purpose of identifying the key motivation elements that shall be present in smart health solutions and to identify the most relevant datasets for a successful open data implementation on smart health. Based on that literature review, we propose an enterprise architecture for smart health solutions and a reference data catalog for open data portal initiatives that can be used as a reference model and a set of guidelines for city authorities and other decision makers to follow or consider in their specific innitiatives.
