eHealth Planning and Management Symposium 2008

EuroRec EHTELEuroRec's Annual Conference 2008 takes place on the 3rd of November 2008 in Copenhagen in a joint meeting with EHTEL.
Focus on: Change management for introducing clinical process orientation and archetypes across the community.

This eHealth Planning and Management Symposium introduces a tool kit for proactive professionals to improve eHealth leadership & governance for using ICT to strengthen clinical processes.

It will

  • Provide the participants with a management reference framework;
  • Explore and illustrate the latest cross-stakeholdersÂ’ tools, models and concepts for planning, building and deploy eHealth as a means for better integrated health services by all stakeholders.

The intended target audience are executives and managers, working e.g. in ministries of health, regional health boards and hospital groups, competence centres, health insurance and health care provider organisations as well as associations representing a particular eHealth stakeholder group such as clinicians/nurses/patients and citizens. The event will be particularly relevant for you as

  • Procurer, strategic decision maker and if you are contributing to the definition of policies where eHealth has a role to play;
  • Healthcare programme manager;
  • Healthcare process manager and eHealth tools designer.

The learning motivation would be defined by one or more positive answer to the following questions:

  • Is one of your tasks to work out strategies and plans to modernise your national/regional health system with the support of the new technologies?
  • Is the stakeholder group you belong to or which is represented by you, engaged in or concerned by the deployment of eHealth services across the community?
  • Are you responsible for deploying eHealth solutions or to monitor the progress of eHealth pilots?
  • Are you seeking to secure your investments in eHealth tools and services?

The working methodology will support a holistic learning experience. The theoretical elements and the frameworks examined in the plenary sessions will be complemented by practical use cases.

Four break-out sessions will be held for participants to share experiences and to explore certain aspects in more depth.
