Benefits of cross-border telemedicine
• Mobility:
– Travelling patients
– Move the data – not the patient
• Improved access to more specialized healthcare
• Avoid bottlenecks
• Avoid doctors migration

Barriers to telemedicine
• Technical Interoperability
• Reimbursement not settled
• Legal issues
• Cultural and linguistic differences

Interoperability
We need:
1) Standards, terminology and semantic consensus
2) Network and security
![Page 5: Baltic eHealth empowering regional development in the Baltic Sea Region Henning Voss](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56814f56550346895dbd01e3/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Standards and semantic consensus in Denmark
![Page 6: Baltic eHealth empowering regional development in the Baltic Sea Region Henning Voss](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56814f56550346895dbd01e3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Network and security inDenmark
• Internet-based
• Any data type
• From push to pull:
Receiver in charge
Patients access own data
![Page 7: Baltic eHealth empowering regional development in the Baltic Sea Region Henning Voss](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56814f56550346895dbd01e3/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

The Baltic Health Data Network
![Page 9: Baltic eHealth empowering regional development in the Baltic Sea Region Henning Voss](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56814f56550346895dbd01e3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Tools on the network
• Service Portal (yellow pages)
• Videoconferencing broker
• Collaboration Platform & Structured Reporting
Tool
• Common PACS archive for hospitals (??)
• Telemedicine broker (??)

Guidelines
• Legal
• Reimbursement
• Organisational
• Cultural / linguistic

eUltrasound
• Classical Second opinion approach:
• Mid-wives and doctors in Västerbotten
• The Norwegian Centre for Fetal Medicine
• First step – off-line consultation
• Second step – on-line consultation
![Page 12: Baltic eHealth empowering regional development in the Baltic Sea Region Henning Voss](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56814f56550346895dbd01e3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
eRadiology
• Lack of Radiologists in Funen hospital
Waiting lists and traveling to other hospitals.
• Solution:
• Images are taken in Funen
• Reports are made in Vilnius and Tallinn
• Start with conventional radiology
• Multi-lingual standardized reporting schemes
• Goal: From pilot to production (incl. business model)

Structured Reporting Tool
![Page 14: Baltic eHealth empowering regional development in the Baltic Sea Region Henning Voss](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56814f56550346895dbd01e3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Acceptance of cross border remote reporting
A: If I can get a faster treatment in Denmark, it is all right if a doctor in a foreign country does the reading of my X-rays
B: ”I do not feel comfortable with having a doctor in a foreign country read my X-rays”
72 % agreed in statement A => high acceptance(n = 1988, Danish telephone survey, oct. 2005)

Initial Results
• Legal issues report• BHN is established• Collaboration platform• Structured Reporting Tool• Service Portal• Reports on financial, cultural and technical
issues (before summer)

Implications for potential medical users
• Solves interoperability problem
• Addresses other eHealth problems
• Demonstrates patient mobility

Discussion
• If successful the BHN could be the model for an European-wide secure and interoperable infrastructure.
