ABSTRACT

This chapter discusses different issues related to Internet of things (IoT) in Cloud network for smart Healthcare. Remote monitoring and telemedicine are the main initiatives in IoT healthcare. In a health data context some data from medical devices and monitoring systems ultimately end up in Electronic Healthcare Records Systems or in specific applications which are connected with them and send the data to labs, doctors, nurses and other parties involved. Provision of adequate healthcare facilities to each citizen of the country is the responsibility of government and is an important process in e-governance framework. Privacy and security concerns are slowing the progress for IoT to take over the sector and prove its potential. When it comes to IoT based healthcare system, the compliance is also needed to focus on app developers, hosting service providers, cloud computing service providers and including subcontractors who involved in the healthcare space might have access to electronic patient health information.
