Electronic Health Records and Health Governance

Regions4PerMed is an H2020 project whose focus is the coordination of regional policies and innovation programmes in Personalised Health and Medicines to accelerate its deployment for citizens and patients. The project has the overarching goal to align strategies and financial instruments, identify key investment areas and release a strategic European agenda in order to reinforce the cooperation between H2020 and ESIF on Personalised health and Medicines aspects, strengthen industrial specialisation areas in Europe, allow Personalised Health to flourish as an Emerging Industry and enable interregional joint investment in the field.
The Project creates an arena for discussion, best practices exchange and policy benchmarking between regional authorities and innovation stakeholders in Personalised Health.
Regions4PerMed will be focusing on five Key thematic areas: medical big data, connected health, health industry, innovation flow in the healthcare and socio economic aspects.
The Conference of the First Key Thematic Area (KA1) explores the theme of Big Data, Electronic health records and health governance and aims to:
- Support the creation of a Data Ecosystem and the data and genomic empowerment for Personalised Medicine and Health in Regions and in Europe;
- Increase the knowledge and realise an assessment of solid models for Big Data in healthcare;
- Use health related Big Data as a strategic investment that could drive industrial competitiveness;
- Analyze and assess implementable models of biobank networks able to support the transition towards health and care data based systems.
