Open Call CEF-TC 2015-2: CEF Telecom Call - eHealth

European Commission2015 CEF-TC 2015-2 call aims to support the deployment of generic services by Member States, namely in the areas of Patient Summary and ePrescription/eDispensation, as defined in the relevant guidelines and documents adopted by the eHealth Network and in coherence with the core services in order to allow EU-wide interoperability.

The main objective is to offer a secure peer-to-peer network allowing the exchange of Patient Summaries and ePrescriptions, which will pave the way to reach the following general objectives:

  • enable seamless cross-border care and secure access to patient health information between European healthcare systems, particularly with respect to the exchange of Patient Summary and ePrescription.
  • contribute to patient safety by reducing the frequency of medical errors and by providing quick access to patient health information, as well as by increasing the accessibility of a patient's own prescriptions, also when abroad.
  • provide medical personnel with life-saving information in emergency situations and reduce the repetition of diagnostic procedures.

The maximum co-financing rates of EU financial assistance to be granted under this call for proposals will not exceed 75% of eligible costs of the action.

All practical information on this call for proposals and the evaluation process is detailed in the Guide for Applicants. It is available, together with the application forms, model grant agreement, the 2015 work programme, and other relevant documents on the call web page accessible via this link: https://ec.europa.eu/inea/en/connecting-europe-facility/cef-telecom/apply-funding/2015-cef-telecom-call-ehealth-2015-cef-tc-2015.
