The database of the eHealth ERA Project coordinated by empirica includes a number of extended country reports. They provide details of national eHealth strategy and implementation activities in Europe. The purpose of the database is to enhance knowledge about eHealth activities and to facilitate co-operation between states and regions in the field of eHealth.
The database includes documents about national eHealth priorities, strategies, roadmaps and RTD programmes in all EU Member States, the Candidate Country of Turkey as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland. Most documents can be accessed through a hyperlink to the original website.
The database began by providing links to documents about national eHealth activities. eHealth policy fact sheets for almost all European countries were added later and this is the third step in extending the database. It can be accessed via the eHealth ERA Project website.
