Abstract

For Healthcare, the potential benefits of applying "Internet of Medical Devices" (IoMD) to solve both the cost problem and to improve patient safety and outcomes are tremendous. The medical industry is quickly adopting mobile technology (mHealth) as a means of connecting lay users with medical professionals. Unfortunately, current apps can be quite fragile to unexpected event, and unpredictable changes can be very disorienting at enterprise level. These major changes, usually discontinuities referred to as fractures in the environment rather than trends, will largely determine the long-term future of organization. They need to be handled, as opportunities, as positively as possible. We need more robust, resilient and antifragile application to be ready for next generation systems. They are mandatory to develop antifragile self-organizing and self-regulating system further. Health Information community can take advantage of a new HICT Natural Framework proposal, to get a more reliable conceptualized synthetic and powerful systemic vision, to be used in advanced modeling for healthcare application and organization (HO) and high reliability organization (HRO) in general. Two application examples are presented. HICT Natural Framework can be used to develop competitive applications, from telemedicine apps, antifragile anticipatory learning system (ALS), health information management system, to health governances policies for advanced HO, new competitive HRO "environmental friendly" information management strategies conveniently, and beyond. The present paper can give a relevant contribute to that perspective and to let you achieve practical, operative results quite quickly.
