Delving into the dynamic fusion of these domains, it unravels the transformative power of technology applications, showcasing how they enhance health literacy and empower individuals to make informed decisions about their well-being. By providing insights into the integration of mobile health apps, electronic health records, extended reality, artificial intelligence, and more, the book equips readers with the knowledge needed to navigate the evolving healthcare landscape with confidence. For academic scholars seeking a roadmap to understand and harness the potential of technology in healthcare, this book is an indispensable resource. Embrace the present and future of healthcare excellence by joining this exploration of innovation. Overcome the challenges, democratize access to knowledge, and usher in a new era where technology becomes the catalyst for improved health outcomes and patient-centered care.
