: e-Health enables easy access to medical services without some of the limitations of traditional medical services such as restricted access to specialists and the need to travel long distances. With the recent advances in IT, more and more people are adopting e-health solutions. However, most of the domain experts and end users who may be involved in developing these e-health applications may not have an IT background. This makes it hard for them to contribute to its development. This paper presents a human-centered e-Health modeling language, to help end-users easily specify their requirements and communicate with domain experts and clinicians to design and develop personalized e-health applications. The tool aims to provide a common language between developers and domain experts, assisting the interdisciplinary teams to focus on the project itself rather than on communication. We built a visual web application using the SiriusWeb platform to implement our approach and evaluated its accessibility and usability with 11 end users. Participants reported that the tool was straightforward to use without any IT knowledge, and notations were distinguishable and expressive.
