Project description

The project's goal was to create an interdisciplinary and cross-border competence center in telemedicine. Healthcare staff, researchers and companies in Sweden and Finland met and learned from each other to gather knowledge and experiences from good examples in the participating countries. The aim was to create tools and facilitate the processes for introducing telemedicine. The competence center consisted of three nodes, one in each country and a virtual node with a database and a digital portal for collaboration. The database contained case studies describing implemented telemedicine applications from both countries.
