Digital Insight - information-driven Health & Care

eHealth Summit Austria is the national eHealth event which will take place on 23 - 24 May 2017 for the fifth time at the Apothecaries' Wing of the stunning Schoenbrunn Palace in Vienna. The fifth edition of the congress represents the successful cooperation between HIMSS and the Austrian partners: AIT, UMIT, OCG and OEGBMT. The Programme Committee includes renowned representatives from key sectors such as politics, science, users and industry, thus ensuring that all important and relevant topics for the Austrian healthcare are being addressed and reflected in the programme.

Prospective authors are invited to submit original papers (not being considered for publication elsewhere) in standard IOS press format (maximum 8 pages) in English. Submissions will undergo an international peer review process and will be judged on originality, relevance, quality, and clarity. Additionally, the editors will define the presentation format (oral presentation or poster).

All accepted full papers (both oral presentation and posters) will be published "open access" by IOS Press in the Studies in Health Technologies and Informatics series. They will be indexed in PubMed and Web of Science, among others. Selected papers will be printed in a special issue of Applied Clinical Informatics (ACI).
All accepted papers will be indexed in ISI Web of Knowledge and PubMed.
