Ubiquitous and Comprehensive Healthcare: Expanding Technologies and Systems to Enable New Delivery Models

ABSTRACT

Whether at home, work, school, or traveling abroad, digital healthcare is in demand. Rapidly changing delivery models are shaping the new healthcare landscape far beyond a COVID-19 world. The papers in this minitrack present innovative digital health applications that can be administered or used in a digital health setting outside the walls of traditional healthcare facilities. These papers present apps for parolee reentry into the community, training for audiology screening, and infectious disease risk assessments. Another paper addresses optimization of at-home triage, while the final manuscript focuses on empowering patients in health consultations using an online platform. Taken together, these papers highlight the growing importance of enabling new delivery models for ubiquitous and comprehensive healthcare. © 2022 IEEE Computer Society. All rights reserved.
