EHealthEurope.netE-Health Media Ltd has today announced the launch of EHealthEurope.net, an independent news and business information portal covering the development of the healthcare information technology sector across Europe.

E-health is a fast-growing market valued by the European Commission at €11bn annually, and set to account for 5% of Europe's healthcare expenditure (European Commission E-Health Action Plan, 2004).
