The eHealth Governance Initiative

The eHealth Governance Initiative worked to establish a governance structure for eHealth within Europe in order to ensure the continuity of healthcare both at home and across borders. Project partners developed strategies, priorities, recommendations, and guidelines designed to deliver eHealth in Europe in a coordinated way.

The initiative sought strong coordinated political leadership and the integration of eHealth into national health policies. It worked to link Article 14 of the eHealth Network, which brings together national authorities responsible for eHealth (on a voluntary basis), to work on common orientations in this area and to promote an interoperable and sustainable eHealth implementation across Europe.

eHGI concluded in 2014.
