The delivery of health care services, where distance is a critical factor, by all health care professionals using information and communication technologies for diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease and injuries, research and evaluation, and for the continuing education of health care providers, all in the interests of advancing the health of individuals and their communities (WHO) Background 16-09:40 8

9 17-09:40 Rationale: clinical genetics service serve ~one million inhabitants, are located in urban areas advanced services are committed to specific clinical areas patients experience inequalities in access to services, due to distance, physical disability and income language and cultural differences are often a barrier Objective: to develop an effective framework of telemedicine applied to medical genetics across the Mediterranean rims in order to improve quality of care and reduce health inequalities and promote higher education in the field 18-09:40 Objective: Specific aims: to develop an effective framework of telemedicine applied to medical genetics across the Mediterranean rims in order to improve quality of care and reduce health inequalities and promote higher education in the field Establish the information and communication technology infrastructure. Develop harmonised protocols for clinical examinations and genetic counselling. Educate staff Inform patients and carers Evaluate efficacy, limitations and optimisations of remote consultations Transfer telegenetics in clinical practice through structured evaluations (HTA) 9
