“…Dixon, McGowan [ 66 ] asserted that efficacious modifications in the healthcare arena are made possible by knowledge codification and collaboration from information technologies. Similarly, some authors have pinpointed information and communication technologies within the healthcare arena to be a major determinant in the attainment of a sustainable health system development [ 58 ]. The knowledge management relationship with HIS is considered complementary and balanced, as it enables the availability of knowledge that can be shared.…”

“…The importance of knowledge management is relevant for the realization of an enhanced healthcare application via HIS. Soltysik-Piorunkiewicz and Morawiec [ 58 ] claimed that the information society effectively uses HIS as an information system for management, patient knowledge, health knowledge, healthcare unit knowledge, and drug knowledge. The authors herein demonstrated how HIS facilitates knowledge management in the healthcare sector to improve healthcare applications.…”

Health information system deployment has been driven by the transformation and digitalization currently confronting healthcare. The need and potential of these systems within healthcare have been tremendously driven by the global instability that has affected several interrelated sectors. Accordingly, many research studies have reported on the inadequacies of these systems within the healthcare arena, which have distorted their potential and offerings to revolutionize healthcare. Thus, through a comprehensive review of the extant literature, this study presents a critique of the health information system for healthcare to supplement the gap created as a result of the lack of an in-depth outlook of the current health information system from a holistic slant. From the studies, the health information system was ascertained to be crucial and fundament in the drive of information and knowledge management for healthcare. Additionally, it was asserted to have transformed and shaped healthcare from its conception despite its flaws. Moreover, research has envisioned that the appraisal of the current health information system would influence its adoption and solidify its enactment within the global healthcare space, which is highly demanded.

“…Piorunkiewicz and Morawiec [16] have published a study detailing the significance of AI in long-term e-health systems from a theoretical perspective in light of the practical Polish healthcare experience. However, this research was limited in that it did not specifically address security and privacy concerns, as well as design and integration challenges; instead, it merely described the conceptual problems of sustainable growth in e-health and made some suggestions about the role of ICT as a knowledge management factor in the healthcare system.…”

Good health and well-being is one of the essential SDGs that ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all ages and further entails providing substantial medical services to the public at low cost and with minimal adverse effects on the environment. Information and communication technologies (ICTs) have taken on an increasingly important function as significant facilitators of healthcare reform, with the goals of enhancing access to health services, the quality of treatment provided, and the overall productivity of the healthcare system. However, the integration of ever-increasing ICT technologies into the healthcare systems, also referred to as digital transformation, is not a straightforward process, but it comes with different types of challenges from integration level to application design level and security level. Although several studies have been proposed to address the integration of ICT technologies into healthcare systems, there is still a need for a comprehensive research study on the integration and design challenges, security and privacy challenges, application areas, and possible positive and negative impacts. Therefore, this paper contributes as the research literature study covering an important SDG, "Good health and well-being," and its digital transformation, along with summarising our research findings in a detailed and taxonomical way. To start with, firstly, we present a detailed comparison of existing studies on healthcare and well-being, mainly focusing on integrating ICT technologies in healthcare in terms of sustainable aspects, security and privacy challenges, design and integration challenges, E-health-related applications, and future directions. We also present an overview and the need for digital transformation in healthcare, discuss its significant components, highlight E-health's importance and benefits, explore its integration and design challenges, and categorise the security and privacy challenges. Next, we present an in-depth discussion on the role of Blockchain technology as today's leading technology in E-health, discussing Blockchain technology and its characteristics, highlighting its benefits, and describing the possible types of Blockchain-based E-health use cases. Furthermore, we discuss the positive and negative impact of ICT integration along with identifying open issues and challenges of integrating ICT technologies into the healthcare systems and discuss future research directions, which provide the strength for researchers to address the issues in future solutions.

Ensuring good health and well-being is one of the crucial Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that aims to promote healthy lives and well-being for people of all ages. This involves providing affordable and environmentally friendly medical services to the public fairly and equitably. Good health and well-being goals include achieving fair health outcomes and strong healthcare systems. It also highlights the importance of integrating sustainable health considerations into the policy frameworks of developing countries, which are established to address the social factors that influence health. Regarding healthcare reform, Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) play a pivotal role as key enablers to improve patient access, treatment quality, and system efficiency. This shift in focus also highlights the significance of fostering digital accessibility, sustainability, inventiveness, cybersecurity, and digital leadership. Nevertheless, incorporating progressively advancing ICT technology into healthcare systems, sometimes called digital transformation, is not simple. However, some challenges arise in integration, application design, and security measures. While numerous studies have been suggested to tackle incorporating ICT technologies into healthcare systems, these studies have had limited scope and have not considered several factors. Therefore, there is a pressing need for an extensive research study focusing on integration technologies, design challenges, security and privacy challenges, application areas, and the potential positive and negative effects. Therefore, this paper contributes as the research literature study covering an important SDG, “Good health and well-being,” and its digital transformation, along with summarising our research findings in a detailed and taxonomical way. First, we analyze an all-encompassing taxonomy of prior research on healthcare and well-being, emphasizing incorporating ICT in healthcare, specifically with sustainability, security and privacy challenges, design and integration challenges, applications associated with Electronic Health (E-Health), and potential future avenues for exploration. Then, we explore the need for digital transformation in healthcare and its significant components, highlight E-Health’s importance and benefits, explore its integration and design challenges, and categorize the security and privacy challenges. Next, we determine the role of Blockchain Technology as today’s leading technology in E-Health. We discuss Blockchain Technology and its characteristics, highlight its benefits, and describe the possible types of Blockchain-based E-Health use cases. Furthermore, we compare the positive and negative impacts of ICT integration and identify open issues and challenges of integrating ICT technologies into the healthcare systems. We also discuss future research directions, strengthening researchers to address the issues in future solutions.
