IS and Healthcare

Track Description
Health information systems (HIS) are a broad class of applications that use a variety of advanced information, mobile, social media and wearable technologies to collect, store, manage, process and transmit health information. HIS can aid many interdependent stakeholders, such as patients, care providers, payers, policymakers, technology vendors, platform creators, and researchers. Digitization enabled through HIS has the potential to deliver better, cost-efficient and patient-centric healthcare through widespread sharing of authorized data, process transformation and proactive involvement by patients to sustain their own well-being. There is early evidence that HIS, in isolation and in combination, impact care provision and administrative processes, enhance care quality, reduce healthcare costs and facilitate information sharing across organizational boundaries. However, more research is needed to examine the role of information technologies in a variety of care settings, with the move toward value-based care and developing a better understanding of the impact of regulatory changes, such as system interoperability, information blocking, population health, accountable care, and telehealth adoption. Further, the global pandemic due to the widespread outbreak of COVID-19 has upended traditional healthcare systems and care delivery processes, and has led to greater adoption of new types of payment models and technology adoption. National and regional governments worldwide have introduced several initiatives around technology use, data integration, privacy, payment models and access to care, and the commercial sector has launched several innovations in the consumer sector, which make it easier to track and consolidate individual-level data. Increasing standardization in the healthcare industry and the widespread use of HIS among health care providers, payers and consumers have enabled the creation of large datasets, which lend themselves well to predictive modeling.

This track provides a forum for presenting and discussing original research highlighting the opportunities and challenges related to the role of IT in delivering 21st century healthcare. We invite qualitative, quantitative, analytical, computational, data-science, conceptual, and design science-oriented submissions that leverage the multiple perspectives of information systems in the healthcare sector.
