Call for papers:

We are currently witnessing a rapidly moving transition trend towards
electronic healthcare  information systems.  They have already proved
to be essential tools in order to improve the management  and quality
of  healthcare  services.  More recently,  these  systems  have also
started  to  promote  great  results  on the improvement of patients'
health  by enabling the creation of much more flexible, efficient and
interoperable means by which practitioners and even patients can have
access and manage  healthcare  data.  However  very complex technical
challenges  resulting  from  strict  but  necessary  highly regulated
environments,  threats to  patient safety, privacy, and security must
be  tackled  and  solved  before  we  can  safely  have  valuable and
sensitive patients' data being securely managed and used in much more
flexible and potentially useful ways.  Towards  this  end  it is thus
imperative to develop innovative methods and policies that ensure the
secure acquisition  and  management  of  healthcare data, at the same
time promoting its interoperability,  its' sharing, and its integrity
and confidentiality in highly effective and secure ways.

This  special track  focuses  on  original  unpublished  research on
innovative methods, policies and  concerns  that  can  constitute the
right building blocks  for  a new generation of electronic healthcare
information  systems  that  are  at  the  same  time  more efficient,
empowering  and  secure.  So,  it  is  expected  novel articles about
privacy,  security,  accountability  and  auditing for the healthcare
sector.  This  special track  also pretends to encourage the research
dissemination to the stakeholders involved  in healthcare information
technologies,  promoting  the  discussion  on  issues, challenges and
solutions that are currently being developed all around the world.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  *  Access control and consent management models;
  *  Authentication and identification concepts;
  *  Security and privacy concerns in healthcare;
  *  Biometrics in healtcare;
  *  Health data protection;
  *  Policy and Legal aspects of regulating privacy of health data;
  *  Healthcare in cloud computing;
  *  Mobile devices and their use in healthcare information systems;
  *  Patient empowerment;
  *  Personal health records;
  *  Usability and human factors;

The  most  relevant  articles  will be invited to submit an extended
version on the Journal of Health, Policy and Technology published by
Elsevier.

Each contribution must be prepared  following  the  IEEE  two-column
format,  and should not exceed the length of six Letter-sized pages;
the authors may use LaTeX or Microsoft Word templates when preparing
their drafts.  The papers should  be submitted electronically before
the paper  submission deadline using the EasyChair online submission
system. Papers must be submitted in PDF format, with fonts embedded.

All submissions will be peer-reviewed by at least two reviewers. The
SPH2013 program committee will be responsible for the final decision
about acceptance of articles submitted.  All accepted papers will be
included in the conference proceedings, and will be published by the
IEEE.  At  least  one  author must pay the registration fee for each
accepted paper.  Please  refer to the IEEE IPR guidelines concerning
copyright.  Authors of accepted papers must include a completed IEEE
Copyright Form with the submission of their final camera-ready paper.
