Internet of Things devices being used now expose limitations that prevent their proper use in healthcare systems. Interoperability and security are especially impacted by such limitations. In this paper, we discuss today's issues, including benefits and difficulties, as well as approaches to circumvent the problems of employing and integrating Internet of Things devices in healthcare systems. We present this discussion in the context of the REMOA project, which targets a solution for home care/telemonitoring for patients with chronic illnesses.
