Abstract

In this era of modern health systems, the nature of the delivery of care has become streamlined, digitized and personalized by the application of technology, health informatics systems. It emphasizes the key health informatics functions supporting clinical decision making, national patient outcomes and overall functionality in a health care system. Artifacts within this paper summarize current use-cases including EHRs, telehealth, CDSS, and HIEs. Yet, despite high potentials for integration, health informatics is frequently hindered by substantial barriers to successful large scale adoption, including a lack of data privacy, a lack of interoperability in current systems, difficulty of use for end-users and the demand for common protocols []. Discuss trends of applying artificial intelligence (AI), big data analytics, wearables technologies and mHealth platforms in particular to uncover new opportunities. Since the review assesses multiple barriers and enablers to informatics integration, it yields several strategy implications and recommendations that should help policymakers, healthcare providers and technologists to optimise informatics solutions implementation in changing health systems.
