What is it?
The term Digital Assets for Citizenship refers to any digital solution that allows the practice of healthcare and social welfare activities centered on the individual, accessible via a website, a mobile application, and other user interfaces.
These elements can interact with other technologies such as patient monitoring sensors, virtual reality, or artificial intelligence, redefining professional-patient relationships in terms of efficiency and effectiveness.
On the other hand, we want to highlight the terms mHealth and mSocial. mHealth includes mobile applications and devices, sensors for patient monitoring, and other digital assistants that enable person-centered healthcare and public health activities. mSocial comprises mobile applications, devices, and other digital assistants that facilitate person-centered social action and welfare activities.
Innovation in these sectors is crucial to promote digital transformation.
