  2. eHealth: The European Case • European Union: • Strong legal infrastructure/ Protection of Privacy Rights • Parallel non-coordinated technical developments • Good Medical Care Delivery • Population aging • Different Countries: • Cultural/Regional/Medical Infrastructure • Maturity level in Health Telematics ITU Workshop on Standardization in E-health

  3. The need for interoperability • Right of freedom of movement within EU • Right to receive the necessary health care • Obstacle for Investments • Risk to loose previous incompatible solutions • EHR • Critical Mass • Ensuring the quality of care • Distribution of the points of care ITU Workshop on Standardization in E-health

  4. Time?????? The echelons of interoperability • Interoperability in: • Technical standards • Medical procedures • Organisational protocols • reimbursement, certification • Legal framework • Political decisions ITU Workshop on Standardization in E-health

ITU Workshop on Standardization in E-health

  7. TM-Alliance and Interoperability “There is a risk that existing important results of the European standardization efforts in this area are not taken up simply because they are not always known, neither to buyers nor to suppliers. The use of experts to produce standards does not ensure disseminationto the wider community; only adequately resourced, technically expert, publicists can ensure this.” Market, environment and objectives of CEN/TC 251 (2000) ITU Workshop on Standardization in E-health
