SUMMARY:Conference 'Which priorities for a European policy on multimorbidity?'
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][mk_image src=”https://prescribeddrug.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/FotoJet-Collage.jpg” image_width=”600″ image_height=”470″ crop=”true” lightbox=”false” frame_style=”simple” target=”_self” caption_location=”inside-image” align=”left” margin_bottom=”0″][mk_padding_divider size=”40″][vc_column_text]Testimonials from multimorbid patients across Europe\, gathered by the European Patients’ Forum: \nAmanda Roberts\, United Kingdom \nCees Smit\, The Netherlands \nNina Baláčková\, Czech Republic \nWolfram Nolte\, Germany \nOana Maria Dan\, Romania \nMultimorbidity\, usually defined as the co-occurrence of two or more chronic conditions in one person\, has become the norm rather than the exception in primary care patients and is set to become more prevalent as our populations age. Multimorbidity is therefore a growing concern in our society and a challenge facing patients\, health professionals and health systems’ sustainability. \nUsing interactive formats\, this conference will provide a unique opportunity for healthcare professionals\, researchers\, policy-makers\, professionals from the pharmaceutical and ICT industry\, insurers and patient representatives to share experiences and existing knowledge on multimorbidity from regional models of care to research and decision-making tools. Building upon success stories and innovative practices\, participants will learn about the evidence base to support a change of mind-set from disease-oriented management to patient-oriented care. Participants will also be invited to reflect on how to overcome the barriers to achieve a common framework to work on multimorbidity. \nThe ‘Which priorities for a European policy on multimorbidity?’ conference is an invitation to everyone interested in management of patients with multiple illnesses to come together to: \n\nRaise awareness on the relevance and urgency to deal with multimorbidity\nShare experiences and practices in the management of multimorbidity\nLearn from innovative healthcare approaches\nExplore together how to address the barriers to address a common framework on multimorbidity\nCreate a common engagement across stakeholders to start addressing the issue at European level\n\nRegister here. \nMore information: here \nConference booklet[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Innovative Financing Opportunities in Active & Healthy Ageing
DESCRIPTION:The European Commission\, DG SANTE is organising the Conference ‘Innovative Financing Opportunities for Active & Healthy Ageing’ on the 3rd June 2015. The Conference will look at the issue of how to practically leverage public and private financial instruments and maximise synergies in the area of active & healthy ageing. In particular\, the Conference will focus on the EU financial instruments\, Investment plan for the EU\, joint-procurement of innovative solutions\, and new ways of public-private co-investments in health. The Conference will feature speakers and panellists discussing the synergies in the European Structural and Investment Funds and Horizon 2020\, public private partnerships\, social innovation and alternative financing means. \nThe European Commission’s Investment Plan for the EU seeks to encourage public and private investments in specific projects which will deliver in key areas such as knowledge\, innovation and the digital economy; in this respect the Conference would discuss building up cases addressing innovation on active and healthy ageing in the project pipeline of the Investment Plan. \nSome of the key questions the Conference will seek to address are: What can policy makers and governments at regional\, national and EU level do more to help? How to best mobilise investments\, also from the private sector? \nBuilding on the European Innovation Partnership on Active & Healthy Ageing\, the Conference will bring together the private sector and public sector working on solutions for financing of active & healthy ageing projects. \n

SUMMARY:European Summit on Innovation for Active and Healthy Ageing
DESCRIPTION:The Summit on Innovation for Active and Healthy Ageing aims to engage Europe’s policy\, services and market leaders to co-create a shared vision on how Europe can address the challenges and seize the opportunities arising from demographic change through ICT and innovation and in that way contribute to economic recovery. \nCentral topic: how can technology\, innovation and new ways of cooperation help Europe to turn this major challenge into an opportunity? Live demonstrations\, sand pits and an interactive exhibition will show in action what is being discussed and highlighted in thematic debates and knowledge-sharing sessions. A wide variety of meetings and side-events with one goal: to turn the opportunities of demographic ageing into growth and jobs for Europe. Several European Commissioners\, national ministers\, regional authorities and leaders from industry\, including SMEs and startups\, as well as civil society will take the floor and lead the debates. \nThe EU population is changing dramatically because of a higher life expectancy and a lower fertility: longer lives and fewer newborns. The number of European citizens over 80 will double by 2025 while the labour market is shrinking. Demographic change constitutes a colossal societal challenge and affects everyone. The ageing of our population can undermine the foundations of Europe’s health and social care systems. Our labour markets\, workforce and overall our cohesion as a society is at risk as the ratio of active vs. inactive people is shifting dramatically. \nBut demographic change also offers new opportunities for innovation\, growth and societal transformation that can benefit many millions. In our fast-paced and interconnected world\, driven by breakthrough technologies\, the right innovations for active and healthy ageing can help our citizens stay active and independent for more years\, while savings costs for governments and creating profits for businesses. A Digital Single Market can support a fairer\, more sustainable and prosperous society and the opportunities offered by the Silver Economy are immense. \nClick here to access the presentations and find out about the conclusions.
