Abstract

This chapter aims to provide an overview of the importance of data governance in digital ecosystems in the province of healthcare and to place special emphasis on the significance of taking business processes into account from the early stages of development of this type of solution. It should be borne in mind that business processes are not only those that produce economic benefits, but also those that provide added value for the entire ecosystem and make it sustainable over time. The chapter ends by exemplifying the above discussed approach in a specific use case of a platform initially conceived for the psychoeducation of formal and informal caregivers. Said platform has been conceived using a business process modelling approach focused on data exploitation from the early stages of development, which has allowed services, stakeholders, and potential users of the ecosystem to be extended far beyond the initial ecosystem goal.
