Abstract

While the first wave of initiatives for the creation of National eHealth policies, strategies, and architectures was to a great extent led by First World countries [1, 2, 3] around 2010, organizations such as ISO, ITU, PAHO, and the WHO embraced the endeavor of developing tools that would help governments, researchers, and Health and Biomedical Informatics practitioners understand the power of eHealth Strategies. Countries were encouraged to direct efforts towards creating a consistent eHealth Vision that is congruent with a country’s (or Region’s) needs and resources, monitoring and evaluating its implementation, and addressing risk assessment and mitigation. Such tools include a WHO resolution [4], the WHO-ITU National eHealth Strategy Toolkit [5], PAHO’s initiatives and resolutions [6], and a two-part ISO TC 215 technical reference [7].
