A new era for Telemedicine in Italy: some examples
Telemedicine is in a new era: it is transforming from an “emergency option”, for the provision of healthcare services during the Covid19 pandemic, into a strategic solution for a healthcare that is closer to people, as envisaged by the Italian Recovery and Resilience Plan with Mission 6, where prevention and territorial care are finally balanced with hospital care.
In this new era, Telemedicine is called to reach a further evolutionary stage whose distinctive and interconnected features are:
- stable entry into the processes of prevention, care and treatment
- governance.
The investment planned by the PNRR for strengthening local Telemedicine solutions (i.e., the software adopted by Regional Health Services for the provision of remote clinical and care services) and managing the National Telemedicine Platform aligns with this direction.
Engineering's strategic role: the National Telemedicine Platform and the NRRP
At Engineering we are working to make the “characters” of the Telemedicine a reality, with our ellipse Telemedicine solution, equipped with an architecture that - in terms of interoperability, business/functional model and information richness designed together with clinicians - represents the most contemporary answer to concretely support the stable entry of Telemedicine in the processes of prevention, assistance and care, as well as related governance.
Our organisational, functional, applicationbased and architectural knowledge on Telemedicine is the foundation on which ellipse RemoteCare has been designed and on which we have successfully put forward our candidature for the National Telemedicine Platform, which we manage as leader of the Temporary Business Grouping with Almaviva.
Moreover, within the framework agreement for Regional Telemedicine Infrastructure, we have ranked first (in a Temporary Business Association with Intellera and Arthur D. Little), and will therefore also be involved in deploying telemedicine projects in several Italian regions.
