{"product_id":"connected-care-richard-royle-9781922979964","title":"Connected Care: Digital Health in Australia","description":"\u003cp\u003eImagine a time when any patient, no matter who they are or where they live, can visit their doctor or specialist online and immediately access all the relevant diagnostic information and medical records - a time when a holistic view of a person's health data and outcomes is literally always at their fingertips. Some of this is a reality now, but the system is clunky, incomplete and inefficient. The fact is that the health sector in Australia, in comparison to industries such as banking and commerce, has been slow to adopt digital methodologies. And even when it has, there has been a frustrating lack of connectivity between e-health technologies, confronting clinicians and consumers alike with information silos.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRichard Royle and David Hansen have been closely involved in e-health in Australia for over two decades and are committed to the creation of a digital health system that enables connected care for consumers and health providers across the country. With this goal in mind, in \u003ci\u003eConnected Care: Digital Health in Australia\u003c\/i\u003e they outline the challenges ahead, and what governments and health providers can do to help build and encourage the uptake of the necessary technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAustralia needs a properly interconnected healthcare system. This will reduce costs and increase efficiencies in what is currently an overstretched sector--and most importantly, it will save lives. A digital health community that reliably provides connected care will deliver greater wellbeing to everyone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Royle,David Hansen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1922979961\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781922979964\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Monash University Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Richard Royle","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48445880795391,"sku":"9781922979964","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_71e9324b-595a-4141-a7bd-8f7c84fd726f.jpg?v=1777221262","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/connected-care-richard-royle-9781922979964","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
