The aim of this master’s thesis is to examine the value creation potential of wellbeing data in a national personal health record. The amount of well-being data
is growing exponentially as a product from the increased popularity of
wearable devices. A large amount of the gathered data goes currently unused.
For well-being data to be of use, it needs to be stored in large quantities. Well-being data can be stored in personal health records, through which the data can
be viewed and managed. The Finnish Social Insurance Institution is developing
a national personal health record where Finnish citizens will be able to upload
their well-being data. The well-being data will be gathered by commercial
solutions and will be able to be used by different healthcare specialists in the
future. This project provides a lucrative opportunity to study the value creation
of well-being data in a national personal health record. This research will
provide insights into what is needed for well-being data to create value through
a national personal health record. The research was conducted by first
conducting a literature review on relevant literature. After this, an empirical
qualitative research was conducted with data gathered through semi-structured
interviews. The interviews were conducted on professionals with backgrounds
in relevant fields to a personal health record, well-being data, health technology
and healthcare. According to the study value can be created with well-being
data through a national personal health record by providing enhancement to
different entities through an easily accessible platform for different users. This
allows value co-creation by these users and provides the basis for the public
and private sector actors to work in balance, by allowing financial constructs to
support the needed commercial actors.
