CONCLUSIONS
• WHO: 'Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not
merely the absence of disease'
• 'Digital' will not only transform healthcare - both in evolutionary and disruptive ways-
but also provide people with new possibilities to progress on the other determinants of
health (nature, nurture, healthcare)
• Games will be integral part of digitally enabled healthcare services as well as bringing
value in health literacy, motivation, behaviour change .. and 'Health' overall
• Further effort is needed to innovate at scale – including validation & evidence (HTA),
user acceptance, value based care models - leading to large scale deployment
• Games for Health solutions targeting individual's behavioural change should explore
other sectors (energy efficiency, transport, security, climate change)

When in Crisis… INNOVATE !
Innovation Scoreboard 2017: http://europa.eu/!Cm36XT
Innovating (at scale!) and obtaining societal and economic benefits
takes more than funding of research and start-ups!
Success criteria for Digital Innovation adoption ( deployment at scale):
- (new/proper) organisation
- skills
- infrastructure
- user acceptance (e.g. evidence of positive outcomes, user friendliness!!)
- right business models
Innovation 'ecosystems' can help in reaching some of the success criteria

SUGGESTION #1(HOMEWORK?)
Engage ( locally, nationally, internationally) with relevant existing
organisations, networks and innovation ecosystems that aim at
large scale deployment
Disseminate your work and findings - add your solutions to the
existing lists of 'Good practices'
Mobility standards
Mobility projectsInternationals trends
Accreditation of applications
Observatory of experiences
SUGGESTION #2
Explore possibility for certification of your solution by
existing (regional, national, international) scheme and/or
seek validation & endorsement by relevant professional
organisations
Why is changing health-related behaviour so difficult? by Michael P. Kelly a, Mary Barker
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0033350616300178
6 common errors of policy makers in attempting to change a health-related behaviour
• It is just common sense
• It is about getting the message across
• Knowledge and information drive behaviour
• People act rationally
• People act irrationally
• It is possible to predict accurately
New body of evidence of how to bring about behaviour change is consistently ignored
These findings do not apply only to health-related behaviour changes!
The Holy Grail:
Behaviour change
Empowering patients and strengthening
self-management in cancer diseases
A meta-analysis of serious games for healthy lifestyle promotion (DeSmet et al, 2014)
• Meta-analysis of 54 studies on serious games for healthy lifestyle promotion; effects remain heterogeneous
• Small positive effects on healthy lifestyles and their determinants• Smaller but still significant effects on health outcome• Long-term effects were maintained for all outcomes except for behaviour
A meta-analysis of serious games for improving knowledge and self-management inyoung people with chronic conditions (Charlier et al 2015)
• Meta-analysis about 7 randomized controlled trials; • in 6 studies significant improvement of knowledge of patients; 2 studies reported better
self-management
Meta-analyses on serious games in general (Wouters et al in 2013)
• Serious games were found to be more effective in terms of learning
and retention, but they were not more motivating than conventional
instruction methods

EU agenda in eHealthand how to get involved
eHealth in EU Current Status
Limited access to health records across borders (citizens and
professionals)
No secure infrastructure to exchange health data across borders to
advance research and personalised medicine.
Low integration of digital health tools with health & care services
• Only 18% of citizens have used health and care services provided online
without having to go to the hospital or doctor’s surgery, in the last 12 months.
These online tools / services were mostly used in Estonia, Finland (both 49%)
and were least used in Malta (6%).
EU eHealth Agenda 2017-
PILLAR 1
Citizens' secure access to
electronic health records and
the possibility to share health
data across borders
PILLAR 2
Connect, through a
decentralised European digital
infrastructure, different health
data sets accessible across
borders
PILLAR 3
Foster citizen empowerment
and person-centred care with
the use of digital tools at large
scale
Open Public Consultation Deadline 12 October 2017
• Transformation in Health and Care in the Digital Single Market 20.7– 12.10
• Access to and use of personal data concerning health
• Making use of personal data to advance health research, disease prevention, treatment and personalised medicine
• Promoting uptake of digital innovation to support interaction between citizens and health care providers

SUGGESTION #4
Engage as individuals and Society / network with policy makers
(nationally/EU wide)
Bring to the table the positive validated outcomes!
EU budget is on average 140 Billion €/year
Most of it is distributed back to EU Member States through regional development, agricultural, social funds.
Some budget is administered centrally by EU administration (European Commission) that runs specific 'Programmes' -
such as the Research and Innovation Programme, called -Horizon 2020 (H2020) ~10,5 Billion €/year
