Abstract

The field of Connected Health (CH) has emerged in response to growing demands for improved connectivity to deliver patient-centred care through innovative healthcare management systems. As a result, there is a growing need to develop new healthcare delivery models and new ways of thinking about how information and communication technology can support healthcare delivery. This paper examines the role of software engineering in CH and presents the CH Delivery Framework as a first step to encapsulate key factors software engineers need to consider.
