eHealth is popularly defined as "health services and information delivered through the Internet and related technologies". eHealth comprises clinical information systems, telemedicine and home care, personalised health systems and services for remote patient monitoring, teleconsultation, telecare, telemedicine and teleradiology, integrated regional/national health information networks, distributed electronic health record systems and associated services such as e-prescriptions or e-referrals, and secondary usage of non-clinical systems (such as specialised systems for researchers, or support systems such as billing systems). The concept of eHealth is continuously changing. Nowadays a lot of attention is being given to the digital health technologies (DHTs) i.e. apps, programs and software used in health and care systems, which may be standalone or combined with other products such as medical devices or diagnostic tests
