Abstract

Health informatics becomes a hot topic not only in the scientific community but also in industrial and the business worlds. Innovative technologies such as both information and communication have enormous potential to improve public health care system. Therapeutic and health care coordination systems offer promising new models of human well-being, based on technology that includes internet, bioinformatics, and computing. Currently, multiple artificial intelligence and machine learning-based efforts have been made for deciphering diseases to facilitate predictive diagnosis. One of the objectives of this chapter is to present comprehensive overview on big data, digitization of health records, improved patient care, electronic medical records, and telemedicine. A snapshot of bioinformatics is used to understand its impact on healthcare. The later dimension describes key challenges of technology in public health as technological progress does not guarantee equitable health outcomes. The last section focusses on future of developed technologies into the healthcare sector due to lower costs, increased efficiency, and most importantly, to improve quality of care, which will help the readers to effectively use the information for their research endeavors.
