Gravitate Health at HIMSS 2022 Conference & Exhibition

HIMSS, one of the Gravitate Health Consortium members, is organising its annual large-scale conference and exhibition entitled “Reimagine Health - Delivering Next Gen Health and Care: The time is now” in Helsinki, 14-16 June 2022 to bring together the European healthcare community for inspiration, innovation, and unrivalled networking opportunities for future collaborations.

During the conference on June 16th, Prof. Anne Moen, Project Coordinator of Gravitate Health, will be joining a panel discussion within the ‘Person-Enabled Health’ track which will be followed by a dedicated Gravitate Health session to discuss with Gravitate Health consortium members and thought leaders of the HIMSS Communities the success factors which are crucial to create, implement and sustain digital tools that are accessible to entire populations while allowing a sophisticated level of personalization at the same time.

Session | Transforming Chronic Disease Management Through a Person-Enabled Health Approach | Thursday, June 16, 2022 | 11:00 - 12:00 EEST

A panel discussion on “Transforming Chronic Disease Management Through a Person-Enabled Health Approach” will be held under the Person-Enabled Health Track. Gravitate Health’s Coordinator Anne Moen is among the panellists. 

How is person-enabled health revolutionising the management of non-communicable disease? Exploring both the patient and the clinician perspective, this session will examine how citizens can connect with their care teams to create a partnership that supports personalised health goals and self-management. This session will focus on diabetes care as an example of how person-enabled health can be applied to non-communicable disease, capitalising on digital health tools, technologies, data and analytics.

Learnings to be gained form this session:

  • Examine how person-enabled health is revolutionising the management of non-communicable disease.
  • Learn from an example of a patient-enabled approach to caring for a patient with diabetes.
  • Gain insight from an example of a digital tool which aims to provide trustworthy health information to equip and empower citizens to be more involved in their own patient journeys (Gravitate Health’s contribution).
