• The strategic plan will enable the development of
more efficient eHealth applications and services
throughout Armenia.
AATM’s long-term plan involves research and
analysis of the current state of Armenia’s health care
sector. The master plan also proposes examining
other experiences with eHealth throughout the
international community and defining how eHealth
will benefit or re-shape current practices in
Armenia. Another important component of the plan
is budgeting for various stages of development of an
eHealth system.
