E-Health Demystified: An E-Government Showcase

E-health, a priority for governments worldwide, involves multiple stakeholders and requires a complex framework designed for interoperability on legal, organizational, technical, and semantic levels, as the Croatian National Healthcare System exemplifies. Successful implementation suggests a model for e-government more broadly.
