Vision and Research Document

The HealthSupport research agenda aims to address applied scientific research. The personalized networked healthcare that is targeted (with a focus for care and prevention) calls for a care consumer centered approach. The research and applications envisioned by the SRA of HealthSupport aim to decrease costs and increase the quality of care, but also increase quality of life and improve the access to care.
The envisioned research is plotted along the following interrelated strategies: Strengthening the self-management of the care consumer and increase the productivity and improving the co-ordination among healthcare professionals and voluntary care givers. These strategies are mapped onto specific areas of interests of the HealthSupport SRA. Furthermore in the SRA a distinction is made into 3 perspectives. These are (1) the care consumer and voluntary care giver, (2) the healthcare professionals and (3) the healthcare managers

Available report: IIP HealthSupport Inventory report on international eHealth communities

In this inventory report we provide an overview of the eHealth arena in Europe, and present specific country information where possible. The intention is to be as be as brief as possible and provide the information mostly via the list of references. Hence first pointers to relevant communities and eHealth strategies are presented. The IIP HealthSupport is of course one of them, and with this report we aim to anchor our activities in an European setting.
This report by no means intends to be complete in its overview. The interested reader is invited to provide input (via the mail alias zorgiip@telin.nl) to complement and improve this report.
