Alignment with health and social care boundaries
It is vital to us that patients are at the centre of all activity within our multi-stakeholder International Digital Health Ecosystem concept. Stakeholders then work with the patient, together, to develop health and social care
All of our Ecosystems offer national and regional differences. The crucial thing is that they all have the same basic principles:
Our International Digital Health Ecosystems are multi-stakeholder groups with the patient at the core, driving the agenda, leading with the need.
A strong community is established with regular quarterly meetings, events and opportunities to network and collaborate.
We encourage and build collaboration across our International Network of Digital Health Ecosystems by building successful cooperation across geographic boundaries to build trust and learn from the experiences across different health systems.
Ecosystems create mutually beneficial partnerships to improve the delivery of health and social care and provide real economic benefits – using the economic potential within the health economy to help grow the regions economy.
Ecosystems from different geographies and specialisms cooperate across boundaries to maximise shared learning with exchanges, learning expeditions and funded projects.
