<unk>  is highly dependent on the individual’s motivation to manage their health. Without the<unk> ’s willingness to be an active participant in their care,<unk>  implementation will likely fail. Cost is also a barrier to its widespread use. There is a lack of reimbursement guidelines for<unk>  services, which may deter its incorporation into clinical practice. The shift of accountability associated with<unk>  brings up liability issues. There are no clear guidelines in respect to whether clinicians have to intervene every time they receive an alert regardless of the urgency. The continuous flow of<unk>  data requires a dedicated team of health care providers to handle the information, which may, in fact, increase the workload. Although technology is introduced with the intent to increase efficiency, it can become a barrier to some healthcare providers that are not technological. There are common obstacles that health informatics technologies encounter that applies to<unk> . Depending on the comorbidities monitored,<unk>  involves a diverse selection of devices in its implementation. Standardization is required for data exchange and interoperability among multiple components. Furthermore,<unk>  deployment is highly dependent on an extensive wireless telecommunications infrastructure, which may not be available or feasible in rural areas. Since<unk>  involves transmission of sensitive<unk>  data across telecommunication networks, information security is a concern. Debate surrounds the potential cybersecurity issues of<unk> , including the likelihood of hacks which could pull personal medical data. Additionally, most<unk>  monitoring devices are limited to single-user applications, and could be expanded in the future for better inclusion of multi-user technologies.
