About this study
Official title: Evaluation of the Implementation and Results of the Health Digital Territories Program in the Five Pilot Territories (EvaTSN Project )
The aim is to evaluate a national health information technology-based program to improve healthcare coordination and access to information.
Read the detailed description
Improvement of coordination of all health and social care actors in the patient pathways is an important issue in many countries; Health Information (HI) technology has been considered as a potentially effective answer to this issue. The French Health Ministry first funded the development of five TSN ("Territoire de Soins Numérique" / Digital health territories) programs, aiming at improving healthcare coordination and access to information for healthcare providers, patients or the population, and at improving healthcare professionals work organization; The French Health Ministry then launched a call for grant to fund one Eva TSN project consisting in evaluating the TSN programs implementation and impact and to develop a model for HI technology evaluation.
