2nd International Workshop on Software Engineering in Health Care (SEHC 2010)

Society faces increasing reliance on software-intensive systems to manage health services, from scheduling, billing, and patient records to the control of life-critical devices and procedures. There are important concerns about software quality, security, and privacy, user interfaces, system interoperability, process automation and improvement, and many other issues of current concern to software engineering practitioners and researchers. It is widely recognized that information and communication technologies (ICTs) will transform healthcare of the future, being a driving force for improving care and access, while reducing the overall cost when broadly calculated based on overall productivity and quality of life.
