Project partners:	The Beskids Oncology Centre - Jan Paweł II Municipal Hospital in Bielsko-Biała Maria Skłodowska-Curie Oncology Centre - Institute in Kraków Prof. K. Gibinski University Clinical Centre of the Medical University of Silesia in Katowice (UCK) Leszek Giec Upper Silesian Medical Centre of the Medical University of Silesia in Katowice (GCM)
Goal:	The project concerns the implementation of integrated ICT solutions, which will allow support for the activities of all medical entities involved in the comprehensive process of diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and monitoring of a patient's condition outside medical facilities, while also providing tools to streamline and facilitate medical consultations and diagnosis on the basis of fully accessible electronic medical records. The numerous functionalities that will be provided by the eCareMed Platform will allow the design and implementation of many new organisational, decision-making and diagnostic processes through modern ICT solutions. The units included in the eCareMed project, depending on their profile, will perform tasks including medical teleconsultation, telemonitoring and telerehabilitation. All three components will be able to function in parallel or individually in the areas of cardiology, neurology and oncology.
