Health 4.0 is a term that has derived from the Fourth Industrial
Revolution (Industry 4.0), as it pertains to the healthcare
industry. This book offers a novel, concise, but at the same time,
broad picture of the challenges that the technological revolution
has created for the healthcare system. It offers a comprehensive
view of health sector actors’ interaction with the emerging new
technology, which is disrupting the status quo in health service
delivery. It explains how these technological developments impact
both society and healthcare governance. Further, the book addresses
issues related to key healthcare system stakeholders: the state,
patients, medical professionals, and non-governmental
organizations. It also examines areas of healthcare system
adaptiveness and draws its conclusions by analysing recent health
policy changes in different countries across the Americas, Europe,
and Asia. The authors offer an innovative approach to the subject
by identifying the critical determinants of successful
implementation of the Fourth Industrial Revolution’s outcomes in
practice, on both a macro- and microlevel. The macrolevel analysis
is focused on essential factors of healthcare system adaptiveness
for Health 4.0, while the microlevel relates to patients’
expectations with a particular emphasis on senior citizens. The
book will appeal to academics, researchers, and students, across a
wide range of disciplines, such as health economics, health
sciences, public policy, public administration, political science,
public governance, and sociology. It will also find an audience
among healthcare professionals and health and social policymakers
due to its recommendations for implementing Industry 4.0 into a
healthcare system.
