About Digital Health Uptake

Digital Health Uptake (DHU) is a project funded by the EU within the Digital Europe Programme. The aim of Digital Health Uptake is to facilitate the alignment of policies, strategies, tools and activities to promote the uptake of digital health solutions and services in Europe.

Objectives

To monitor and analyze the adoption and use of digital health and care solutions in regions, Member States and associated countries.

Creating an environment of cooperation and active stakeholder input that facilitates regular exchanges between the demand side and the supply side to stimulate the cross-border expansion of digital health solutions and services.

Strengthening capacity for implementation/adoption by identifying and qualifying relevant tools and methods, providing guidance, stimulating mutual learning and transfer of innovative practices between regions, Member States and associated countries to encourage adoption, scale-up, large-scale implementation and capacity building.

Expanding digital health solutions and practices

DHU will provide comprehensive support to accelerate the sustainable adoption, use and expansion of digital solutions. Concrete services will include Twinning activities between organizations, regions and countries; providing technical support and training for the use of extension tools; and expanding the digital health ecosystem. The DHU will also play a key role in building the capacity and skills of all stakeholders – from patients to healthcare professionals and healthcare managers, innovators and policy makers – to enhance their ability to be an active and informed part of an inclusive and trusted organization.

Welcome in Smart Hospital Twinning

Smart Hospital project, supported by Digital Health Uptake, is dedicated to funding a Twinning mechanism that supports the replication and scale-up of successful digital health and care solutions in Europe. This strategic initiative facilitates the transfer and implementation of innovative practices, promoting collaboration and knowledge exchange between regions with the period of February 12, 2024 to August 9, 2024.
