Electronic Healthcare Application
Introduction
E-Business stands for electronic business and it is the set of business operations that are
carried out using electronic communications and technologies. Some or the other form of e-
business has become mandatory for the business firms in the present times. This is because e-
business allows a business organization to carry out the business operations easily and target
the global markets and customers.
One such step has been taken by a healthcare firm, ABC Healthcare. The firm was set up as a
not for profit healthcare organization in 2001. It provides health services, care, support and
assistance to the patients and has developed several centres as well. The need of healthcare
has now increased with the current lifestyle and environmental issues. The organization has
therefore decided to expand and involve e-business utilities in its architecture. There are
various models and frameworks that are being explored for the same. It is recommended to
develop and implement an e-health system for tele-health monitoring of the health of the
patients.
The e-business model that will be followed in the application will be Business-to-Consumer
(B2C) model. The business i.e. ABC Healthcare will provide the health services as remote
diagnosis, online medical reports, tele-conference calls with the medical professionals, and
medical advice to the patients using the e-health system. The patients will be able to record
and send their health signs to the medical professionals to receive their comments.
Significance of the Research
There are a lot many healthcare firms that are present all across the globe. In spite of the
presence of so many firms, the patients suffer from the issues as delay in availing health
services, long queues and waiting lines, unavailability of the medical professional at the
desired time, etc. The research provides the details and benefits that the e-health system will
provide to the patients and to the medical professionals.
Research Questions
 What will be the impacts of electronic health application on the organization and the
stakeholders?
 What will be the set of changes that will come up and what would be the approach to
manage the changes?

 What are the benefits and risks associated with the application? How will these be
measures, monitored, and controlled?
Research Methodology
The research methodology that would be used in this case will be exploratory techniques
using qualitative methods of research. It is the method in which the idea behind the
deployment of the electronic health application will be explored. The steps in the
methodology will include the finalization of the topic followed by preparation of the research
questions to be answered. The significance and aim of the research will be listed and a
proposal will be submitted. There will be research plan carried out covering determination of
methodology, schedule, budget, and risks. The data will be collected using the data collection
methods as surveys, interviews, observations, group discussions, and domain analysis. The
gathered sets will then be analysed using automated tools and applications to come up with
the results.
Data Collection Methods
The following methods will be used for the purpose of data and information gathering.
 E-Surveys: Online portals and applications will be used to have an understanding of
the e-business models and frameworks and the ones being used for electronic
healthcare applications.
 Interviews: The entities as the members from ABC Healthcare, patient groups, groups
of medical professionals, e-business supervisors, etc. will be interviewed to determine
the requirements, impacts, benefits, and risks associated with the proposed system.
 Group Discussions: The varied groups will be formed to collect better information
sets.
 Observations: The electronic health systems and applications available in the market
will be observed and analyzed to gather the required details.
 Domain Analysis: The domain over here is electronic business and healthcare. These
domains will be explored to have relevant data sets.
