Analysis and Conceptualization of Healthcare Systems and Training in the Context of Technological Innovation and Personalization

Abstract

AbstractThis chapter will analyse personalization within the context of technological innovation. It will first of all clarify the conceptual terms used in the debate, in particular patient, person-centered and people-centered care and their various uses and limitations. It will then focus on specific issues of personalization and technology in emerging areas, notably in interprofessional practices and in medical training. This will allow greater understanding of both the possibilities and emerging tensions in the integration of personalization and technological innovation in healthcare systems from the training stage to its integration in various professional cadres.
