Definitions of eHealth

The advent of consumer and industry-standard technology has brought dramatic changes over the last 25 years, with these technologies becoming rapidly more common place throughout interactions in our day-to-day lives. The ubiquitous nature of these devices, transactions and services mean that it is quite possible to be dealing with technology without even realising it. These technologies aim to speed up our daily interactions and ensure that delays, inefficiencies and poor service can become a thing of the past.
