In the province of Trento, a specific operational plan and a related organizational model for telemedicine are implemented, an instrument which provides for a central role of the healthcare company, which is entrusted with the governance and coordination of telemedicine paths involving all the actors of the Provincial health system. The objective is to extend the use of the different types of telemedicine services (televisit, teleconsultation, remote control, teleassistance) to all professionals involved in particular in the management of patients suffering from the main chronic pathologies, while ensuring, at the same time, the full integration of services with the national enabling platform which guarantees circularity between Regions and autonomous Provinces.
The areas of intervention range from prevention and health promotion, to the management of chronic patients, up to the management of home care, ensuring the use of telemedicine especially for checks and follow-ups of patients already in care, as well as teleconsultation and teleassistance, potentially benefiting the entire population, and telemonitoring, especially for patients with chronic pathologies.
Therefore, on the one hand, what is already in place in the provincial territory will be consolidated and, on the other, the use of the different types of telemedicine services will be extended, also thanks to the support of TrentinoSalute4.0 and Fbk. All this through an important reorganization of the services and processes relating to the taking charge and management of chronic patients, using the tools that are already in use by operators (clinical records, specialists, etc.), and by citizens (TreC+, app and portal).
Trentino has been allocated 4,372,839 euros, as part of the PNRR, Investment M6 C1, in order to make use of these resources it is necessary to stipulate a specific Agreement with the lead Region, in this case Lombardy, which was simultaneously approved today by the provincial government.
