At the end of the conference, the Prague Declaration was adopted. Its main objective is to sum up the current state of the Europe-wide effort to use information and communication technologies in healthcare for the benefit of patients as well as economic efficiency of the health sector. It also aims to determine further steps to be taken at the level of Member States as well as European institutions. At the same time, a common European eHealth area should be built, where individual national systems will be able to communicate with one another. Integrating eHealth solutions into national health strategies of the Member States will also be of great importance.
