The use of technology in healthcare has the potential to lead to unprecedented improvements in efficiency and quality of care. This workshop will focus on the software engineering issues that arise in using technology to improve the delivery of health care. The workshop will build upon the success of the first ICSE 2009 Workshop on Software Engineering in Health Care (SEHC 2009) and the ICSE 2008 Software Engineering in Healthcare track. It will build upon the momentum from these and related events to enable the small, but growing, community of software engineers to delineate the key issues, to discuss research advances and contributions, identify areas of potential interaction, and to lay a foundation for this exciting and important area. Another goal of this workshop is to identify a small number of realistic case studies to be developed and archived so that researchers can use these as the basis for understanding and comparison of alternative approaches.
Researchers and practitioners from software engineering, medical informatics, and health care are encouraged to participate.
