empiricaFunded by the European Commission, DG Information Society and Media, eHealth ERA investigated and analysed eHealth priorities and deployment activities in European countries. The project developed a database of key national eHealth policy documents, a database of key national contact points for eHealth research and technology development, and it produced several extended reports about current eHealth issues.

All Deliverables are now available online at http://www.ehealth-era.org/publications/publications.htm, including the following:

  • D2.2, The European eHealth policy and deployment situation by the end of 2006
  • D2.3, Report on Priority Topic Cluster one: Patient Summaries
  • D2.5, Report on Priority Topic Cluster two: Patient Empowerment
  • D2.6, SWOT analysis of Patient Empowerment and Patient Summary activities in Europe
  • D3.1, Report on national eHealth RTD programmes, approaches and institutions
  • D5.3, Final Project Report.

Furthermore, the database section at http://www.ehealth-era.org/database/database.html now also includes extended eHealth country reports about Finland, Ireland, Netherlands, Romania, and Sweden.

About eHealth ERA Project
The overall goal of the eHealth ERA Project is to support Member State innovation-oriented eHealth RTD, identify opportunities for multilateral joint activities, and take steps towards further integration of eHealth deployment and implementation across countries. Towards this end, the project will contribute to

  • greater transparency across Member States with regard to eHealth strategies, RTD policies, and the current state of eHealth implementation,
  • identification and analysis of priority deployment goals and RTD needs,
  • exchange of experience in developing and managing eHealth strategies and programmes,
  • preparation of sustainable mechanisms for trans-national cooperation between Member States for mutual benefit.
Participating countries will thus benefit from an exchange of key information about ongoing activities and lessons learned in other countries, a better understanding of eHealth RTD and implementation in Member States, and an analysis of common priorities and opportunities for concerted actions.
