ABSTRACT

The three pillars of a smart city are people, process, technology, and the information flows that bind them together as an optimized whole. The Smart Cities Mission of India under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is an initiative toward urbanization. Smart cities require smart healthcare. With the Internet of Things (IoT), layers of smartness are being added to hospitals, such as remote monitoring, chronic disease management, medication management, patient self-management, and workflow management.
