"eHealth for Regions" network:
Results and Perspectives
The project partners summarise here the results which were achieved so far within the "eHealth for Regions" project. Furthermore future perspectives of the international network are highlighted.
First the project members
started to analyse the different health care structures in the partner
countries. They carried out a survey in five countries asking the
public, doctors and nurses as well as decision makers in the health
care sector for regional needs and acceptance of eHealth. The purpose
of the report "eHealth as a facilitator of transnational co-operation
on health" is to reflect ideas and experiences on how eHealth can
facilitate and be the necessary tool for transnational co-operation on
health.
Secondly the project partners
developed a common strategy for the "eHealth for regions" network in
the framework of European policy objectives. The international partners
agreed on an organisation model for the sustainable network after the
project phase. Substantial part of this model is a Political Strategic
Board set up with representatives of the highest political level from
the regions.
Thirdly the project members
agreed on concrete co-operation fields. The partners already co-operate
within the "eHealth for Regions" network in these fields.
