Attending the TEHDAS2 Stakeholder Forum was an insightful experience and reaffirmed my belief in the transformative potential of the European Health Data Space. Some key takeaways: 🌐 Digital transformation of healthcare. The EHDS stands as a game-changer for research, innovation, and policymaking. It will also be an enabler for AI in health, impacting AI-driven healthcare solutions and supporting safe innovation. 🔧 Collaboration is key. The implementation of EHDS will require joint efforts from all stakeholders. Member States have significant work ahead, but it is through collaboration that the EHDS can become a reality. 📈 Future Outlook. The success of EHDS will have to be built on leveraging existing infrastructures, ensuring interoperability and maintaining trust among stakeholders. The EHDS is not just a regulatory framework but an opportunity to unlock the potential of health data for better patient, research and policymaking. 💡 Excited to be part of this transformation through our work at PredictBy!

🚀 We are thrilled to announce the official launch of the Enkore Project! Today, we are hosting our Kick-Off Meeting at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, bringing together experts from across the world to shape the future of eco-design in healthcare. What is ENKORE? ENKORE is a European project led by a multidisciplinary consortium of 39 partners (plus 13 industry affiliates) from 15 EU countries, as well as the UK and the USA. Our main objective is to develop an eco-design framework that facilitates the creation of medical devices and packaging that are both safe and environmentally responsible—reducing carbon footprints and optimising resource use. By connecting the design phase to the end-of-life stage, we ensure circularity technologies are integrated right from the outset, without compromising on the strict safety and biocompatibility standards required by the healthcare sector. ENKORE is co-funded by the Innovative Health Initiative (IHI) and unites a diverse consortium of partners committed to creating safe, circular, and sustainable-by-design medical solutions. Stay tuned for updates on our progress as we work towards closing the loop in healthcare and fostering a healthier, greener future for all!

𝗥𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 IHI IMPROVE 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁: 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗴𝗺 The healthcare model in the EU is evolving, moving from a volume-based approach to value-based healthcare (#VBHC). This shift focuses on delivering high-quality care while managing costs. In essence, VBHC measures success not by the number of services delivered, but by the health outcomes achieved per euro spent. Specifically, it’s about: 🔹 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 by focusing on preventive measures, holistic approaches, and chronic disease management. 🔹 𝗘𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 through shared decision-making, innovation, and aligned incentives. 🔹 𝗘𝗻𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 by reducing inefficiencies, unnecessary procedures, and hospital readmissions. #VBHC is essential for building sustainable and equitable healthcare systems, especially as they face growing challenges such as ageing populations, rising costs and workforce shortages.   The Innovative Health Initiative (IHI) funded #IMPROVE project aims to support the implementation of #VBHC by enabling the collection and smart use of patient generated health data (including #PROMS, #PREMs and #PPIs). Recently, the PredictBy team was in Ljubljana (Slovenia) to learn from the Slovenian use case - many thanks to Eva Turk, Janez Bernik, Valentina Prevolnik Rupel and all other Slovenian partners for the amazing organisation!   To learn more about the IMPROVE project check ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/dyXraMMy

The development of the customised tools involves co-creation activities with relevant stakeholders across eight European countries, where the tools will be implemented and evaluated. During the meeting, we presented our contributions to identifying psycho-social, ethical and legal requirements through a preliminary feasibility assessment and PESTLE analysis of the school based cancer prevention programme with digital tools. 🚀 SUNRISE is part of the Prevention and Early Detection Cluster (behavioural change) together with the projects Meliora Project and iBeChange. 🌟 Together, we are shaping a healthier future for the next generation, empowering adolescents with knowledge, tools, and support to reduce cancer risk and promote long-term well-being. #Cancerprevention #adolescents #behaviourchange #digitalhealth #behaviouralscience #Innovation Centre for Research & Technology Hellas (CERTH) | Dr Andreas Triantafyllidis | FAVO | Laura Del Campo | Chiara Pilotti | IOCN | Delia Nicoară Nina Nicoara | Ghent University | Emma Beuckels | Liselot Hudders | PASYKAF | Youth Cancer Europe | Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH) | University of Sydney | Ellinogermaniki Agogi | PARTICLE | Alma Mater Europaea| Vlaams Instituut Gezond Leven | Fisabio foundation | Osakidetza | IIS Biobizkaia | BRIDG-OU | ISGF I Severin Haug

Last week, Frans Folkvord, Justine Fleur van der Feen and Nick Dietrich attended the first in-person meeting with the SANGUINE consortium. Many thanks to the National & Kapodistrian University of Athens for hosting the meeting in Athens in such a successful and warm manner.   Aligned with the #CancerMission's objectives—understanding, prevention, diagnosis, and improving quality of life—the SANGUINE Project focuses on the development of an innovative minimally-invasive test for the early detection of blood cancer.   In this project, PredictBy is focusing on the societal aspects, particularly the design and execution of a co-creation process involving various stakeholders. This process aims to assess the needs of healthcare providers and patients, thereby enhancing clear communication and informed decision-making in the early detection pathway. Next, we support all the pilots in conducting the cost-effectiveness analyses to show the impact of the outcomes of the project on society and healthcare delivery.   During the meeting, the consortium discussed significant progress, valuable updates, and the next steps for the project. We want to thank all consortium partners for their contributions, and we are looking forward to the upcoming activities and to the broader impact the project aims to achieve in advancing cancer prevention and early detection.    #EUCancerMission #HorizonEurope #Prevention #Earlydetection 

📢 Today the European Health Data Space (#EHDS) Regulation has officially been adopted by the European Parliament and the Council. This is a crucial step towards a unified framework to securely exchange and access health data across the EU, fostering innovation and enhancing healthcare delivery. At #PredictBy, we are proud to actively contribute to the smooth implementation of the #EHDS, by supporting the organisation of twinning programs to enhance the healthcare systems of Member States - within the 'Capacity Building on Primary Use of Health Data Across Europe’ project. In addition, we are involved in the project ‘Capacity Building for Secondary Uses of Health Data’, which focuses on equipping future staff of health data access bodies with the necessary skills and tools to operate effectively within the EHDS framework. While the next steps for the regulation to enter into force are taken, our colleagues Helena Catalán Busquets, Rodrigo Ortega Izquierdo, Laura Juvé Sánchez, Joan Camacho and Francisco Lupiañez-Villanueva will continue to lay the ground for the implementation of the EHDS by working on these two capacity-building projects (commissioned by European Health and Digital Executive Agency (HaDEA). At PredictBy, we are committed to supporting the development of robust health data infrastructures and ensuring that the EHDS realises its full potential for the benefit of all EU citizens. Feel free to reach out to our experts for any EHDS-related questions you may have. 💡 #EHDS #HealthData #DigitalHealth #Innovation #HealthcareTransformation
