Philips is partnering with a Chronicity consortium of hospitals, universities, and companies to launch the ACT@Scale program. The 2015 coordination and telehealth scheme, the first of its kind, will collect and analyse “health outcome and economic impact” data involving chronic patients and elderly people, to develop “best practice” telehealthcare solutions and implement them across the ACT@Scale . The three-year ACT@Scale program will collect and analyze the health outcome and economic impact data for large populations of chronic patients and elderly people to develop, test and consolidate 'best practice' care coordination and telehealth programs that can be replicable and successfully rolled out across the European Union. CEO of connected care and health informatics at Barcelona , Jeroen Tas , said: “The EU program will provide the evidence needed to successfully deliver a seamless patient experience with better outcomes at lower cost.”
