City/Venue: 
University of Westminster, London

The sixth annual conference of the International Council on Medical & Care Compunetics – ICMCC.

Dealing with medical and care compunetics, the field of social, societal and ethical implications of computing and networking, ICMCC decided to focus the 2009 Event on Patient 2.0 Empowerment, more specific on Electronic Health Records (EHR) and secondarily, the connection between EHR and Digital Homecare.

In a recently published paper, we defined Patient 2.0 Empowerment as:

The active participation of the citizen in his or her health and care pathway with the interactive use of Information and Communication Technologies.

Main subjects for the call for papers are:

  • EHR and Knowledge Management
  • Social aspects of EHR
  • Ethical aspects of EHR
  • EHR and digital homecare
  • Future of EHR (visionary)
