Abstract

For more than 10 years the Scandinavian countries have been focusing on utilizing information technology to increase efficiency in the delivery of healthcare services. Over the last 3 years all three countries have built closed secure IP-based healthcare networks that cover nearly all aspects of the national healthcare sector. The next step is to connect the national networks and integrate them into one large Scandinavian healthcare network. This paper describes the history of e-health in the Scandinavian Countries, the challenges and emerging trends.
