Researchers:

J. van Gemert-Pijnen, H.C. Ossebaard, R. van Duinen, M.J. Wentzel

Program:

Patient care

Collaboration:

Zorgroep Almere

Short Description:

The main objectives of this project are:

a) to establish the added value of an eHealth application for both patients, professionals and organization, and

b) to identify factors that either foster or impede succesful implementation.

This is done by a systematic literature review and an evaluation in praxis of an existing eCoach intervention ‘Fyiso on line’. This innovative study introduces business modelling methods to enable national upscaling if the intervention is found to be effective.
