The International Educational and Networking Forum for eHealth, Telemedicine and Health ICT
ArrayE-healtrh komt gelukkig meer en meer op de Europese kaart. Op basis van positieve ervaringen in de afgelopen jaren, richten steeds meer commerciële bedrijven zich op de ontwikkeling en verkoop van e-zorg diensten en e-health toepassingen. Het aanbod van deze bedrijven in binnen- en buitenland is explosief groeiend. Marketingstrategieën en -technieken die elders succesvol zijn, blijken in de gezondheidszorg vaak niets uit te maken of zelfs een averechts effect te sorteren. Het International Educational and Networking Forum for eHealth, Telemedicine and Health ICT heeft in 2008 een groot Symposium georganiseerd en zoek nu abstracts voor presentaties en posters. Med-e-Tel focust op e-health en telemedicine toepassingen, een brede verzameling van andere medische ICT toepassingen en de convergentie van ICT met medische toepassingen. Dit alles zou moeten leiden tot een hogere kwaliteit van zorg, vermindering van kosten, efficientere zorgprocessen en grotere beschikbaarheid van diensten.
