Remote monitoring: Direction for ResearchMarc Lange
Remote monitoring will happen! Integrating ICT in health care is about progress and who can stop the progress?
Also, patients are about to demand for it. Have in mind their current interest for mHealth and note that in a large number of trials, the feedback received from patients and their carer is positive: they feel more secure when receiving feedback on the data they sent remotely and if attention has been paid to educate them in interpreting the data they are sending, they can become a full partner of the care team!
Finally, remote monitoring services – combined with self-care – offer strategic opportunities to modernise health care systems by enabling them to become more proactive, better empower patients and citizens and, in the end, use health care resources more efficiently.
To identify future directions for research, this lecture will consider remote monitoring from three viewpoints: what evidence is still needed, how best to support decision making in favour of doing remote monitoring, and how best to support the deployment of remote monitoring in routine care. Results and lessons learned from two European Commission co-financed projects, Renewing Health and United4Health , will be used to illustrate the messages.

The world's population is growing larger, older, and sicker, placing increasing challenges on healthcare systems to expand access to care with finite resources. Chronic diseases now account for 70% of illnesses, and the population over 50 will increase by over 500 million by 2025. Healthcare systems face constraints like aging populations, growing disease burdens, and limited budgets. However, new medical technologies in development and advances in data analytics provide optimism for healthier futures. Key questions remain around how to introduce high-value innovations and make systems more sustainable.

The Tribunale per i diritti del malato di Cittadinanzattiva promotes citizens' rights in health services in Italy with over 10,000 active citizens working out of 330 locations. New drugs for treating Hepatitis C offer a cure and simplify treatment but elevated prices and eligibility criteria limit access for many patients. The organization established a national tutelage program providing information, counseling, and monitoring access to the new drugs which has helped increase funding and prescription centers, expand eligibility criteria, and start over 53,000 patients on treatment, though access remains limited for some groups.
This document discusses ways to make access to innovative medicines more sustainable in the EU. It suggests the EU take a more comprehensive approach when negotiating medicine prices that considers public and private research contributions, product benefits, healthcare budget and organization impacts, and patent duration. It also recommends compulsory licensing be considered when prices are abnormally high. The role of regulators could be improved by expanding compassionate use programs, aligning regulatory and health technology assessment timelines, and increased post-approval monitoring. The EU should protect solidarity principles, encourage transparency, generalize orphan medicine access mechanisms, and encourage joint procurement to reduce prices.
