Reforming the H system : a necessity
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
demographic changes : ageing population
increased prevalence of chronic diseases
citizen expectations for high Q HC
increasing costs of research, equipments,
examinations, treatment
quicker pandemia expansion
lack of staff ; shortage of HCP
mobility of citizens, patients, HCP, workers
mastering costs : crisis and ‘business’ model
ITs : Key expectations
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Facilitate access, continuity of HC (mobility)
Improving Q of care, allowing real HC equity
Enhancing coordination, continuity of care security & safety
Facilitating collaboration between HCP, within/between HCPO
Improving homecare and adapted delivery services at PoC
Organising mutualisation and international standards usage
Facilitating research, L S experimentations and deployment
Decreasing the number of doubloning examinations
Mastering costs through innovative model(s)
Multidisciplinary approach :
a necessity ; from research to citizen
• efficient health (disease) management
• prediction / prevention of diseases
• remote monitoring and care
• higher patient safety and citizen empowerment
• shift from hospital to personal centered system
• more personalized care solution- privacy issue
• higher productivity of HC and professional
interoperable standardised industry solutions
• adapted legal framework
Actors … Stakeholders
Public authorities and
the organized civil society
– a common objective, but own missions,
agendas, vocabularies and constraints
– different skills, needs and access to different
to eHealth expertise

Health in the EU Treaty
• HEALTH is a national prerogative
– subsidiarity is key
– but challenges are the same in each M.S.
• what could be done at EU level :
– a volontarist collaboration between M.S.
– supported by the E.C.
– confirmed by the « eHealth action plan »
– design through a dedicated organisation
– declined on pragmatic priorities
2002-2010 a new Era
a new era in legal and policy framework
for EU Cooperation on eHealth

• And turn ideas into practice
CALLIOPE Network (with the support of EC-DG INFSO)
The need for an
Interoperability Roadmap
• Each country or region is separately trying to
solve the same problems.
• Each country or region, organisation or division
of the particular organisation lacks the
resources and skills needed to boost innovation.
• All countries will benefit from joint effort
towards this.

integrating, and diffusing this knowledge
• taking into account the various facets
•Organising this K along the value chain to
reach the agreed target
epSOS – a highly political project
• Member State obligation to deliver the best possible medical treatment – at
home or when travelling
• Introducing a new dimension in national healthcare systems
•
Goal for the epSOS eHealth Project:
– “to develop a practical eHealth framework and ICT infrastructure that will enable
secure access to patient health information, particularly with respect to a basic
patient summary and ePrescription, between European healthcare systems”
• Main political objectives:
– support patient mobility nationally and in the EU
– ensure that patient safety is guaranteed
– increase efficiency and cost-effectiveness
in cross-border care

indicators for adoption
– Supports specific actions and a support mechanism
to help MS to effectively share lessons learnt about
benefits and costs of choosing one approach over
another as well as about the incentive mechanisms
and reimbursement system
37
Together addressing
open issues in the EU
• Recommendations
– Elaborate – at the onset of the collaboration
process – a two layered EU collaborative
Governance based on current EU practice
and the CALLIOPE experience
– Consider the establishment of national multistakeholder platforms
38
Main observations
from CALLIOPE Network
• For implementing eHealth interoperability, the Network
supports the Member States key proposals to
– Focus on high-level governance
– Value exploring the concept of EU competence network
• Including benchlearning processes, best practice repositories …
– Operationalise stakeholder involvement and engagement
– Consider interoperability as a process and emphasize the
importance of its sustainability
39
IoP (RM) Critical Success Factors
• Relevance: that IoP activities are seen as relevant to
business objectives and current activities
• Openness: that the IoP process is seen as an open and
inclusive one
• Engagement: that all parties are able to contribute to
all stages of the process
• Affordability: that the results are affordable, and
demonstrating a clear return on investment

Brussels, at EU Parliament
– Crossing boundaries in eHealth: the
CALLIOPE think-tank and collaborative
platform
November 2010
To prepare the EU eHealth High Level Governance
Directive on patients rights in cross
border Healthcare: eHealth
1. The Union shall support and facilitate cooperation and the exchange of
information among Member States working within a voluntary network
connecting national authorities responsible for eHealth designated by the
Member States.
2. The objectives of the eHealth network shall be to:
• (a) work towards delivering sustainable economic and social benefits of
European eHealth systems and services and interoperable applications, with a
view to achieving a high level of trust and security, enhancing continuity of
care and ensuring access to safe and quality healthcare;
• (b) draw up guidelines on ▌:
• (i) a non-exhaustive list of data that are to be included in patients' summaries
and that can be shared between health professionals to enable continuity of care
and patient safety across borders, and
• (ii) effective methods for enabling the use of medical information for public
health and research;
• (c) support Member States in developing common identification and
authentication measures to facilitate transferability of data in cross-border
healthcare.
European eHealth Governance levels
 Policy level: to set out higher level political objectives,
define common priorities and policy measures
 Strategic level: to agree on concrete strategies for
developing and implementing integrated, value adding
eHealth services
Establishment and maintenance of an open platform
for multi-stakeholder trusted dialogue
 Operational level: deeper focus in areas such as
ethics, security policies and services, EU infostructure,
re-engineering of the standardisation process,
maintaining links to national stakeholder groups, etc.
A further consolidated approach
is needed…
• Establish a European Governance to sustain an
open and transparent process involving all
three levels
• Reach out to the national communities, i.e.
beyond what CALLIOPE was able to achieve
within its life span
• Establish mechanisms to support MS in their
implementation of the EU Roadmap
