The Serviceflow Management System enhances chronic patient care by integrating services within a virtual health-care organization. This system streamlines communication and data sharing for improved patient management and outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Information Systems Management

Background:

  • Managing chronic and outpatient care involves multiple organizations and fragmented patient journeys.
  • Patients require seamless access to services and communication of health status data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose the Serviceflow Management System for handling information and communication requirements in patient management.
  • To design a unified Virtual Health-Care Organization (VHCO) for integrated patient care.

Main Methods:

  • Developing a care process model as a Serviceflow using the Workflow Management System YAWL.
  • Creating an organizational ontology to represent the VHCO structure.
  • Defining agreements and commitments using XML documents for contracts.
