Health IT Market Opportunity Webinars

The UK is the 3rd largest economy in Europe and the 5th largest in the world. Its publicly funded health system, the National Health Service (NHS), serves 65 million people and is a world leader in primary care EHR systems and IT infrastructure. The UK’s medical device market is import-led and worth $8 billion, and it’s likely that BREXIT in March 2019 will increase the demand for non-EU imports.

• What are the opportunities and trends in the UK market?
•  What are the potential changes to the regulatory environment and supply chain post-BREXIT?

Join us to hear the following featured speakers discuss this important topic:

Ukraine’s economy is among the largest in Eastern Europe with significant potential for growth: anticipated 3% GDP growth in 2019-2020. 

Healthcare reform laws came into effect in Ukraine on January 1, 2018. This marks the first step of the transformation of the stagnant post- Soviet health system into a Western-style, health insurance-based one.

With the support of international partners, the eHealth Project Office has developed the functionality required by Ukraine's Ministry of Health to initiate healthcare reform. In 2017, the ownership of the eHealth project was transferred from international donors to the Ministry of Health. The State-Owned Enterprise (SoE) “Electronic Health” was created to develop and implement an eHealth system.

Today Electronic Health is known under a new brand,  “eZdorovya”. The National Health Service of Ukraine (NHSU), a new central executive body, became functional in April 2018 to manage the financial system of healthcare in Ukraine. The only option to work with NHSU is via the eHealth system.

The webinar will give you an overview of the Ukrainian healthcare market and will highlight:

• emerging opportunities in the Ukrainian market with the development of healthcare reform
• the model, development, integration, current state, and prospects of an eHealth System in Ukraine
•  emerging opportunities with the development of digital infrastructure in clinics and laboratories.
