Project description
Empowering patients and supporting widespread deployment of telemedicine services
Share knowledge and experience in deploying telemedicine services into routine care. That's what Momentum, a thematic network, is about. Working together, Momentum’s members from all corners of Europe will develop, test and finalise a blueprint for telemedicine deployment that offers guidance for anybody who seeks to move telemedicine from an idea or a pilot to daily practice.
MOMENTUM has, at its heart, building a European momentum for telemedicine to ensure the provision of high quality routine care for its people.Stakeholders will be closely involved. The MOMENTUM Thematic Network will develop a European Union-wide multi-stakeholder platform. At the core of the platform are the "Doers" of telemedicine – those involved with its day-to-day delivery. Its wider community includes stakeholder groups, other actors and the broader public.MOMENTUM has a core set of objectives. It is about creating a platform across which the key players can share their knowledge and experience in deploying telemedicine services into routine care so as to build a body of good practice. Working together, they will define a Blueprint that validates a consolidated set of methods supporting the telemedicine service implementation process.Results count. MOMENTUM's outcome will be a vibrant and sustainable network of telemedicine stakeholders. Their responsibilities are to develop and maintain a European Telemedicine Deployment Blueprint that will achieve three results. \tIt will assist countries and telemedicine "Doers" in their telemedicine implementations, and validate the work of past initiatives. \tIt will document the roadblocks – the lack of robust methods to support the telemedicine implementation process is perceived as one of them – that obstruct telemedicine implementation in daily practice. \tIt will propose a set of policy recommendations: these will help to create the enabling environments needed to accelerate overall telemedicine deployment in Europe.It will be a core tool: it will be fundamental to assessing the legal and organisational issues to be addressed in mainstreaming telemedicine at European, regional and local levels. MOMENTUM's ultimate goal is turn telemedicine into a sustainable mechanism.
