However, healthcare is getting more and more expensive. Quality and outcome heavily depend on the availability of medical specialists, which leads to serious regional imbalances in countries and continents. Despite of common availability of modern health information exchange technologies, legislation and remuneration models only rarely support cooperation between stakeholders today. Modern technological IT trends have found their way into the healthcare system only sparsely and with great delay. However, IT – when used correctly – can be of great benefit to patients and their practitioners, especially in the healthcare sector.
