While health and care are increasingly delivered in a digital world, the digital community continues to explore the transformative potential of artificial intelligence and machine learning. In this rapidly developing environment, it is acknowledged that the whole digital health and healthcare community is responsible for initiating and creating positive change.
This book presents the proceedings of HIC 2024, the annual Australasian national conference for digital health and health informatics, held in Brisbane, Australia, from 5-7 August 2024. The conference provided the ideal environment for clinicians, researchers, health IT professionals, industry and consumers to integrate, collaborate, educate and share their knowledge.
The conference - It Starts With Us - focused on 6 themes that underpin a fully digital healthcare sector: recipient of care experience; provider of care capability; clinical informatics; innovative models of care; integrated and connected care; and informatics infrastructure. The 28 papers and 15 posters reflect these themes, highlighting the research and technological innovations that are supporting the digital transformation of the healthcare sector.
This book includes examples of a future where collective insights, shared knowledge, cross-disciplinary collaboration, and enthusiasm are the driving forces behind systemic improvements. It will be of interest to all those involved in the field of healthcare.
