Abstract

Connected health has its roots in telemedicine, and its more recent relative, telehealth. The first telemedicine programs were primarily undertaken to address healthcare access and/or provider shortages. Connected health is distinguished from telemedicine by:
A broader concern for healthcare cost, quality and efficiency, particularly as related to the chronically ill
Concomitant interests in making healthcare more patient centric by promoting healthcare consumerism through education, and patient feedback
Efforts in the direction of integrating data generated outside of traditional healthcare settings such as the home with centralised, often electronic patient record
