“…The information extracted from the automatic evaluation procedure is very important because it holds the knowledge that researchers seek and the indicators regarding what is right and what is wrongly developed. By analysing the existing literature (Fernandes et al, 2012;Gonçalves, Martins, Pereira, et al, 2013;Lee et al, 2013;Martins et al, 2015), we notice that the most common format used to analyse and interpret the evaluations results are the statistical indicators, mainly gathered in tables and charts that allow not only to understand the overall results but also to quickly and easily perceive the target group tendency towards being (or not) Web accessible compliant.…”

“…Despite both the relevance of "eHealth" and "Web accessibility & usability" topics and associated scientific literature, as far as we know there isn't an in-depth analysis to the eHealth websites accessibility compliance levels, particularly one that allows to perceive its timeline evolution. The same fault exists when analysing the existing literature on methodologies or full scope procedures proposals that indicate how to perform an adequate Web accessibility and usability assessment (Martins et al, 2015;Martins et al, 2016).…”

Internet is becoming one of the most adopted technologies of all times and one of its particular uses concerns the public health issues. The search for health related information and the exchange of experiences and opinions on symptoms and treatments is one of the main activities associated with eHealth websites, hence the need for these websites to be accessible to everybody, including those with some sort of disability. Nevertheless, when assessing the level of the WCAG 2.0 compliance of Iberian eHealth websites, the results achieved during a two stage, one year apart, evaluation indicated that these websites were definitely not accessible. By adding this finding to other similar results achieved by means of similar researches we believe that a new full scope Web accessibility and usability evaluation procedure was needed and is now presented. The referred proposal aims at creating a basis for both organisations and Web developers to understand how to perform an adequate assessment of their websites.
