Description

Around the annual theme of Care and Technology, the Annual Conference will take place in Enschede on 11 October.

Technology offers unprecedented opportunities to cure and care for patients, and can also lead to better patient or client safety. Deployment of technology in the healthcare chain offers great opportunities to overcome shortages of well-trained healthcare personnel. Focusing on the patient, how can medical technology and ICT help healthcare to form close chains of diagnostics, treatment and support, as well as prevention, early diagnosis and self-management? Why is it (also economically) of great importance to invest in medical technology at this very moment?

This congress has been awarded 6 GAIA points. Should you wish to qualify for these, please indicate it when registering.
