Abstract
Digital healthcare technology development for eHealth systems enables regional and national healthcare investment to respond to emerging health and ageing population trends (e.g., EU task force report ‘Redesigning health in Europe for 2020’). The initiative aims to ensure all EU citizens have consistent access to a high level of healthcare across the EU, and at a reasonable cost to national healthcare systems. This short summary will outline and detail sources relevant to the digital healthcare typologies and emerging eHealth development potential in three main EU peripheral regions: Western Scotland, N. Ireland (but not Belfast), and the Republic of Ireland Border (or North East) region. First, current regional specific digital health or eHealth projects and relevant government policy per region will be summarised. Second, health research institute capacity and emerging digital hub companies will be regionally discussed. Third, broadband and telecommunications infrastructure development, and labour market intelligence will be outlined. Fourth, specific media articles, policy documents, web organizational and relevant project addresses, and funding sources per region will be listed. Finally, some conclusions are drawn in light of the regional information sources collated in this report.
