Abstract

This study aims to examine the impact of integrating wearable-based digital wellness data with healthcare institutions on healthcare e-business innovation. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and cloud technology are accelerating the transformation of the healthcare industry. In particular, health data collected via wearable devices is emerging as a key factor reshaping the entire spectrum of diagnosis, prevention, and management systems. This data enables patient-centered care, personalized management, and remote monitoring by collecting and integrating patients' biometric information in real time. The research methodology involved analyzing major international literature from the past five years, with results organized into four categories. First, wearable data has fostered a platform ecosystem between healthcare institutions and companies. Second, it has supported patient-centered innovation by enhancing patient self-management and engagement. Third, privacy protection and lack of interoperability remain unresolved challenges. Fourth, it has been confirmed that new business models, such as wellness programs can be created. In conclusion, while wearable data is a driving force for healthcare e-business innovation, institutional reforms, collaborative governance, and securing social acceptance are necessary for widespread adoption. This study contributes to both theory and practice by clarifying how data-driven convergence between healthcare and digital business can generate sustainable value creation.
