Re-Health2

Re-Healthis a project co-financed under the Third Health Program of the European Union (Work plan 2017). The purpose of the project is the implementation of the Personal Health Record as a tool for integration of refugees into the EU health systems. The overall objective of the project is to contribute to the integration of the newly-arrived migrants and refugees, including those to be relocated, in the EU Member States’ health systems through the utilization of the PHR/e-PHR, as a universal EU tool for health assessments that aims at improving the continuity of care, making medical records available to health professionals within and from reception to destination countries, and facilitating data collection to better understand and meet migrants’ and refugees’ health needs, also by supporting and fostering the use and capacity-building of health mediators. The action is the follow up of the previous Re-Health initiative, which has been concluded on May 2017.
