Information and communication technologies have become the essential part of societal life and practical activity. eHealth can be designated as a special form of information and communication technologies. It is obvious that eHealth has a great potentiality; however today there are unfortunately only a few examples of its large services. Efficient, effective, and reliable systems for remote consultations and distance education are the top requirements for eHealth. Cloud computing has emerged as an important new field, distinguished from conventional distributed computing by its focus on large-scale sharing, innovative applications, and, in some cases, high-performance orientation. The authors define Cloud computing as flexible, secure, coordinated resource sharing among dynamic collections of individuals, institutions, and resources \u2013 what can be described as \u201cvirtual organizations.\u201d It is plausible that this technology has more potential and can improve health care services, benefit health care research, and change the face of health information technology. However, cloud computing should be rigorously evaluated before its widespread adoption. Over the past five years, research and development activities have produced protocols, services, and tools. The present article discusses the application of virtual organization technology for eHealth purposes.<\/p>","DOI":"10.4018\/jitr.2012010102","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,12,11]],"date-time":"2012-12-11T16:45:19Z","timestamp":1355244319000},"page":"18-34","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["The Cloud Computing as the Tool for Implementation of Virtual Organization Technology for eHealth"],"prefix":"10.4018","volume":"5","author":[{"given":"Ekaterine","family":"Kldiashvili","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Georgian Telemedicine Union, Georgia"}]}],"member":"2432","reference":[{"key":"jitr.2012010102-0","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"121","DOI":"10.1016\/S0168-8510(02)00059-3","article-title":"The development of health technology assessment.","volume":"63","author":"D.Banta","year":"2003","journal-title":"Health Policy (Amsterdam)"},{"key":"jitr.2012010102-1","unstructured":"Beitiger, J., Johnson, W., Bivens, H., Humphreys, S., & Rhea, R.
