The development of health systems based on the correct use of telemedicine and digital technological innovations must offer the highest possible guarantees of concreteness, effectiveness and stability. This is particularly important in large territorial areas, in areas disadvantaged by environmental or socio-economic conditions, or for individuals or communities in situations of isolation or difficulty of any kind.
For these reasons, the Istituto Superiore di Sanità (ISS, the National Institute of Health in Italy) promotes and coordinates in this area studies and research-development activities, verification, evaluation and scientific validation of management and decision-making models, focusing on how to optimize organizational and management processes.
