So, EAPM’s presidency conference is over for another year - and the 7th edition was, like its predecessors, a great success, пишува Извршниот директор на Европската алијанса за персонализирана медицина (ЕАПМ) Денис Хорган.

And now, totally unlike Brexit, we move on with something constructive under all our belts…

At least something else very definitely constructive took place on the same day as the Alliance event, namely the European Commission’s third edition of its Digital Day initiative. More of that later…

Meanwhile, fresh from the EAPM conference, today (10 April) the Alliance’s Executive Director Denis Horgan spoke in a session for European Patients’ Rights Day in the Brussels seat of the European Parliament.

The event was entitled ‘Delivering patient value throughout the healthcare system.Focus on Digital Health and Personalised Medicine’ and Horgan рече дека "where there is a right, there is also a duty to act and this goes in two ways ".

Elaborating, he went on: “There is a right for patients to expect the best diagnosis   treatment and the duty of the healthcare institutions to do their best to deliver this

"Но, it Исто така goes the other way”, he said, “with the citizen or patient having a societal public health duty to take some responsibility for being treated earlier".

“This makes the individual effectively a part of the health-care system, помагајќи за да се обезбеди Дека тие themselves stay as здрава што е можно."

“Coupled with this is a right заt the institution to expect that for example, adherence is increased and good governance exists,” the EAPM chief added.
