  3. Definition of the eHealth/mHealth Market* “The eHealth market can be defined as comprising the following four interrelated major categories of applications: 1. Clinical information systems a) Specialised toolsfor health professionals within care institutions (e.g., hospitals). Examples are Radiology Information Systems, Nursing Information Systems, Medical Imaging, Computer Assisted Diagnosis, Surgery Training and Planning Systems. b) Tools for primary care and/or for outside the care institutions such as general practitioner and pharmacy information systems. 2. Telemedicine and homecare, personalised health systems and services, such as disease management services, remote patient monitoring (e.g. at home), tele-consultation, tele-care, tele-medicine, and tele-radiology. 3. Integrated regional/national health information networks and distributed electronic health record systems and associated services such as e-prescriptions or e-referrals (cross border EHR+ePrescription) 4. Secondary usagenon-clinical systems a) Systems for health education and health promotion of patients/citizens such as health portals or online health information services. b) Specialised systems for researchers and public health data collection and analysis such as bio-statistical programs for infectious diseases, drug development, and outcomes analysis. c) Support systems such as supply chain management, scheduling systems, billing systems administrative and management systems, which support clinical processes but are not used directly by patients or healthcare professionals.” Lead Market Initiative - eHealth Taskforce report 2007 eHealthhttp://ec.europa.eu/information_society/activities/health/policy/lmi_ehealth/index_en.htm mHealth in all market segments
