There is no doubt that ICT knowledge has become an important component of today's healthcare. To the minimum, every single healthcare professional requires to get the knowledge of ICT tools and techniques making them able to process clinical data digitally. It may include data recording, summarization, transformation, and imputations. The second most important component of ICT knowledge for healthcare professionals is the knowledge of health standardization. The knowledge of health information exchange in a standard way both intra- and inter-organization. This will increase a common and shared understanding of medical knowledge globally.
