eHealth Week 2016 is organized by the Dutch Ministry of Health as part of the Dutch Presidency of the Council of the European Union, the European Commission and HIMSS Europe. This year’s educational programme will focus on three main themes: Empowering People, Trust & Standards and Social Innovation & Transition.

As the focus of eHealth policies is shifting towards eHealth users, efforts are made so that they are increasingly involved in eHealth policy-making. MyAirCoach project has users at the heart of all development processes by adopting a User Centered approach that covers all processes of system implementation. The MyAirCoach Advisory Patient Forum has been implemented in the first months of the project in order to integrate the patients’ perspective in both the technical and clinical oriented tasks and help the project to move towards usable, useful tools the comply with the highest standards of privacy and security protection. 

The MyAirCoach project will be represented in eHealth Week by EFA and MV. EFA, as the dissemination manager of the MyAirCoach project, will share the first year outcomes of the project and will distribute material related to the goals of MyAirCoah. MV will also participate in the conference and pitch the ideas behind the products of the company and their relation to the technical objectives of the envisioned MyAirCoach system.
