The healthcare system is experiencing unprecedented challenges and opportunities that will
revolutionize the sector. The rising demand for health services and the resources restrictions
have put increased pressure on healthcare organizations to improve cost-efficiency and service
offerings. The pandemic has further exacerbated the main pressure points of the healthcare
sector. Currently the shift towards patient centricity is gaining momentum therefore there is
a need to rethink how health systems can embrace this concept in particular with digitization
service innovation and value co-creation. Focusing on digital healthcare this book proposes a
theoretical framework along with managerial implications on moving towards a patient-centric
model. It explores the role of digitization and innovation in solving existing challenges in
the sector and includes the concept of 'One Digital Health' which refers to global health and
transformation and recognizesthe importance of the connection between humans animals nature
and the interrelation of different health systems. With clear implications to Sustainable
Development Goal 3: 'Ensure healthy lives and promote wellbeing for all at all ages ' the
authors argue that innovative transformation in the sector can support the Agenda 2030.
