Interoperability Initiative for a European eHealth area (i2-Health)
From spring 2005 until autumn 2007 EHTEL has been a project partner in the EU-funded project "Interoperability Initiative for a European eHealth area (i2-Health)". The key objectives are
- Citizen mobility and borderless care are key European Union policy priorities, which are supported by the European eHealth Action Plan.
- While healthcare is being thoroughly transformed, proper interoperability measures have to assure that patient information in digital form is at least as accessible and usable as paper based data.
- Health policy makers, health professionals, healthcare providers and the IT-industry have to work hand in hand to assure the meaningful and secure exchange of medical data.
- i2-Health has joined forces with many relevant eHealth stakeholders.
The project website - maintained by EHTEL - is still online at: www.i2-health.eu
