Human Factors in Telemedicine

Abstract

To bring together some of the best minds in the field of Human Factors as it relates to Telemedicine. The group explored how the utilization rates can be improved and documented the thinking in the form of a book that will be valuable to the military health care system and to scholars. Bangert/Doktor, Inc. managed a virtual learning community that interacted continually for two years using the Internet and attended two meetings sponsored by TATRC, devoted to the theme Human Factors in Telemedicine. At the first meeting the invitees committed to the production of a book. At the second meeting, they explored general topics and discuss their individual "thought pieces." During the entire contract period, the invitees refined, discussed and prepared their articles. By electronic discourse, final drafts will be exchanged and discussed. Outside reviewers were used. Dominant themes identified. The editors finalized the articles, organized the edited edition, and prepared the necessary introductory and conductive passages.
