Held on the 30th September at Carton House in Kildare and organised by iQuest and the Sunday Business Post, the 2nd annual eHealth Summit will focus on how key stakeholders are buying into the Irish National eHealth Strategy and moving away from paper based to technology based solutions.

If you work in health IT or have a close interest in the use of information in healthcare, eHealth 2015 is a must-go event for you. In addition, we also expect to see healthcare leaders, managers and clinicians involved in the design and delivery of services and those involved in the specification, procurement, management and front line use of information systems.

Delivering an eHealth Ecosystem for Ireland

Richard Corbridge, CIO at HSE and CEO at eHealth Ireland

“…we need to be able to take clinicians with us on a journey, moving away from the fact that Clinicians aren’t from Mars and Techies certainly aren’t from Venus and starting to actually make sure that the two things can actually work more together so that we really can imagine a world that is supported by technology. Where we really do have health delivered by digital solutions that don’t change Clinical Practice, that enhance Clinical practice and that Clinicians want to use. This isn’t a mandate to change Clinical practice this is a mandate to deliver solutions to clinical practice to help the delivery of it. So that’s it from me and as we said any questions later”
