Take home messages
• Netherlands is one of the ‘first movers’ in innovating LTC
• One of the theme’s of innovating LTC entails use of technologies by
providers, patients & caregivers
• The obstacles of e-Health are numerous and require a multi-
faceted strategy
• Technology acquirement by elders is a heterogeneous process
whereas their needs are subject to change
• Moving from B2B to B2C seems possible in certain cases
Thank you!
