Public Consultation: EU-wide Telemedicine and Innovative Technologies for Chronic Disease Management

ICT for HealthEuropean Commission plans to publish in September 2008 a communication on "telemedicine and innovative technologies for chronic disease management". This communication will be the culmination of a process starting with the current consultation aiming at gathering expertise in all Member States. Therefore your expertise are very welcome. You are invited you to respond to a short online questionnaire with a view to the TeleHealth 2007 conference preparation.

Please respond by 26th October at the latest.

The questionnaire responses will condition the structure of the TeleHealth 2007 conference (11th December) and the way in which the national problems will be taken on board. It should be clear that we will not address issues which are typically national (e.g. related to specific national legislation) and will concentrate our efforts on those that are common to several Member States or related to cross-border activities and would benefit from a European impulse.
