This document provides information about an app design competition for the Finnish National Personal Health Record (PHR) called My Kanta. The competition aims to develop apps in three categories: self-care apps, guided self-care apps connected to healthcare services, and solutions addressing device and ecosystem connectivity. Winners will receive 500,000 euros. Apps should address challenges like reducing app fatigue and measuring effectiveness. The timeline provides deadlines for registration, proposals, jury work, and announcing winners. Developing apps against My Kanta provides advantages like accessing its large user base and standardized health data from many providers.

How Sweden improved patient self service with ehealth

Johan Eltes

Since 2006, a national Health Advice Line – 1177 - has been Swedish residents first point of contact with healthcare. In 2006, a national patient portal was set up to facilitate form based, secure information exchange between patients and Swedish care providers. The next step was to introduce fully digitalized self-service e-services. These services offload health care personnel from manual registration tasks and improves the service to the patients. As an example, 1177 provides a national e-service for online appointment management with primary care providers across the country. Another e-service of the national patient portal provides online access to electronic health records from the majority of the EHR systems of Sweden’s 21 county councils and 300 municipalities. The appointment e-service has had a linear increase in patient transactions, starting at 25 000 per year with a current rate of 1,2 million per year. The current development is focused on tele medicine services (a national platform for remote treatment programs), the ability for the patient to share EHR data with apps and services and a national architecture for personal connected health (home monitoring). The presentation gives an overview of e-services offered to patients, their adoption and share some lessons learned.

E-health in Denmark

Healthcare DENMARK

Denmark has a long history of focusing on e-health and healthcare IT networks. The national e-health portal Sundhed.dk, launched in 2003, provides citizens access to their personal health records and the ability to communicate with healthcare providers online. Healthcare professionals also access patient health information through Sundhed.dk. The national electronic health record system allows sharing of health records, test results, and other information between general practitioners and hospitals. Telehealth services have expanded to include remote monitoring of patients with conditions like COPD and diabetes. The goal is to empower patients and support integrated care through personalized telehealth solutions.

Dave Taylor

The document discusses building public trust for data use in new health technologies. It summarizes the Patients Association's position that while patients support data sharing under proper controls to improve care, many have low awareness of current data practices. Specifically, the PA advocates for opt-in consent by default, clear descriptions of what data is shared and why, and strengthened security assurances. The document also notes some past issues that undermined public trust and the need for transparency regarding any AI decision-making in the future.

It aims to improve patient access, practice efficiency and value for clinical commissioners. Long term, econsult.net plans to enable remote management of long term conditions through integrated devices and apps. It is currently used in 300 UK practices serving over 2.9 million patients.

Dennis Kehoe - ECO 15: Digital connectivity in healthcare

AIMES has created a Trustworthy Research Environment (TRE) within its HealthCLOUD, which allows authorized data scientists and analysts to access sensitive healthcare data in an ISO27001-certified and IG Toolkit-compliant environment. The TRE includes mechanisms for provisioning data through interoperability and data pipelines, and an analytics zone where data can be analyzed using tools like R and Spark. AIMES is applying this infrastructure and data science capabilities to focus on care pathways for conditions like epilepsy, COPD, and alcohol abuse through its Connected Health Cities program. As more rich datasets become available through regional and national health information exchanges, data science has the potential to transform clinical areas such as stroke prevention and mental health crisis prevention.
