The International Journal of Extreme Automation and Connectivity in Healthcare (IJEACH) is an academic journal for a range of emerging research issues related to the digital transformations in the Healthcare paradigm. Today’s world is wired differently compared to the past few years where almost everything can be made ubiquitously. Extreme connectivity enables more universal, global, and close-to-instant communication. These new business models based on these emerging technologies are mainly focused on collecting and connecting health-related data from all available sources, extracting meaningful information from that data, and providing that information to other players. Extreme automation on the other hand can be coupled with extreme connectivity or even with extreme environment, allowing computing systems to control and manage physical processes and respond in ever more “human” ways in highly connected normal environment or a challenging extreme environment. The journal offers a favorable platform for scientists, researches, students, to make their valuable contributions towards this vital emerging research field.
Mission & Scope:

The International Journal of Extreme Automation and Connectivity in Healthcare (IJEACH) publishes research that satisfies the growing need for innovative approaches to health informatics based on the emerging advancements in connectivity and automation. Extreme automation describes an increased reliance on Artificial Intelligence (AI). It includes technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), machine-to-machine communications (like sensors), and cognitive systems. Extreme connectivity happens when all of these systems interact and communicate with each other and people in real time in normal or extreme environments. The impact of these new technologies and their associated protocols and services will have a profound effect on all types of healthcare systems. IJEACH is designed to provide planners and policy analysts, practitioners, academicians, vendors and others emerging technologies in healthcare that might support decision-making activities as well as the advancement of research and innovations in this vital area.

IGI Global holds its journals to the highest ethical practices.
View Full Editorial PolicyArticle Processing Charge (APC):
Payment of the APC fee (directly to the publisher) by the author or a funding body is not required until AFTER the manuscript has gone through
the full double-blind peer review process and the Editor(s)-in-Chief at his/her/their full discretion has/have decided to accept the manuscript based

What Does IGI Global's Open Access APC Cover?
In the traditional subscription-based model, the cost to the publisher to produce each article is covered by the revenue generated by journal subscriptions.
Under OA, all the articles are published under a Creative Commons (CC BY) license; therefore, the authors or funding body will pay a one-time
article processing charge (APC) to offset the costs of all of the activities associated with the publication of the article manuscript, including:
- Digital tools used to support the manuscript management and review process
- Typesetting, formatting and layout
- Online hosting
- Submission of the journal's content to numerous abstracts, directories, and indexes
- Third-party software (e.g. plagiarism checks)
- Editorial support which includes manuscript tracking, communications, submission guideline checks, and communications with authors and reviewers
- All promotional support and activities which include metadata distribution, press releases, promotional communications, web content, ads, fliers, brochures, postcards, etc. for the journal and its published contents
- The fact that all published articles will be freely accessible and able to be posted and disseminated widely by
the authors - Professional line-by-line English language copy editing and proofreading*
*This service is only performed on article manuscripts with fully paid (not discounted or waived) APC fees.
APC Subsidizing and Funding
To assist researchers in covering the costs of the APC in OA publishing, there are various sources of OA funding.
Additionally, unlike many other publishers, IGI Global offers flexible subsidies, 100% Open Access APC funding, discounts, and more.
