Without ICT, this is impossible

With science and paternalism, is not feasible to deal with ageing, chronic diseases and budget constraints

The need to be knowledgeable about and understand these choices and engage in a shared decision-making process

Shared Decision Making• Patients have to be informed• Patients have to spend some time to consider their goals

and concerns.• Interaction with their health care providers

The challenge of health system is to increase value of care for patient in sustainable way

Virtual health practice• The transformation of the health system is not possible if it

is based almost exclusively on face-to-face visits.

• We define "virtual health practice" as the strategy of promoting the consistent use of technology across all points of care cycle in order to increase contact with the patient, reducing face-to-face visits, to get the maximum value in terms of health and wellbeing.

Need of disruptive innovations to care for patients with

chronic diseases

Increase the total number of contacts and reducing face to face visits

Need to respond to the needs of the population (not just

those of patients who "knock on the door")

To develop scalable projects, not just pilot studies

Need to promote an intensive and simultaneous use of

multiple ICT’s tools

ICT is not the driver of change, it’s just a lever.

The immediate future of health care should be based on the coexistence of the face-to-face visits & virtual practice and

synchronous & asynchronous

• E-visits are designed to handle common, nonemergency conditions

• What happens when you need to do a physical exam?

•CDC and Prevention says any condition that could lead to an antibiotic warrants an in-person exam

• Telehealth services could lead to more health-care spending

Conclusions

• The main objective of health care is to increase the value for the patient. Information and participation are key elements.

• Information and communications technologies (ICT) have a central role to play in transforming our health care system.

• ICT is a lever not the main issue.

• The main purpose is to define a package of care, as personal as possible, adapted to local circumstances
