Abstract
Interoperable multilayer networks are not just tools but transformative solutions in public digital health. They enhance the
delivery of healthcare services and significantly contribute to improving public health outcomes. By enabling better accessibility,
efficiency, and data-driven decision-making, these networks are revolutionizing our approach to public health. Their seamless
data exchange and integration across different healthcare systems and providers can lead to substantial cost savings for public
healthcare systems. These networks are crucial in reducing redundancies and optimizing resource allocation, paving the way for a
more efficient and effective healthcare system. This study combines the pressing issues of public digital health with the
innovative interpretation of multilayer network theory, proposing practical solutions that inspire academics and practitioners
alike.
Public digital health is instrumental in improving care access and patient engagement, ensuring the financial sustainability of our
healthcare systems. The innovative multilayer network analysis is a game-changer in reducing spatial and temporal constraints.
These networks are not just tools; they are solutions that streamline processes and improve efficiency by easing complex
interactions within healthcare systems. This process, in turn, allows healthcare providers to deliver high-quality care at a lower
cost, transforming, whenever possible, in-patients and out-patients into home-patients. The role of networks in improving care
access and patient engagement is a cornerstone and a beacon of hope for transforming public digital health. They are increasing
the Value for Money and enhancing a patient-centric approach, reassuring us about the future of healthcare.
This study shows that revolutionizing digital healthcare methodologies impacts crucial elements like resilience, interoperability,
and patient well-being within public health. Enhancing interoperability facilitates the smooth flow of data exchange across
various platforms and healthcare providers, fostering improved collaboration and decision-making processes and elevating
patient safety.
