COMFORTage project a member of our stakeholder network keeps its third COMFORTage Community Forum webinar, dedicated to Dementia and Frailty Service Delivery Models for affected patients and their carers.

The session will explore the political and financial decisions made by policymakers in supporting people affected by dementia, as well as innovative public initiatives aimed at improving care and support for patients and caregivers.

This series of webinars explores how people living with dementia are currently supported and what short-term or medium-term opportunities - including the use of digital technologies - can be seized to improve the well-being of both themselves and their carers.

The key focus of the webinar will be to analyse how EU policymakers are currently looking at dementia and frailty considering all different levels of prevention. 

The use of digital technologies to support any stage of the process (evaluation and diagnosis, early secondary prevention, treatment and support at different stages of the disease) is still very much limited to clinical studies. Use of mainstream solutions available (such as solutions to support cognitive stimulation) seems to be at the initiatives of patients, families of patient associations but are not currently promoted by HCPs or integrated in a care plan.

The first two webinars have identified the needs of patients and carers and the main gaps. Those available already mature technologies  have been described, which are already been used.

During the upcoming webinar the policy approaches followed by EU MS will be analysed: We will scan current public business models, analyse current reimbursement modalities, compare official national guidelines and try to identify innovative public initiatives looking at the different levels of prevention.

Aside from security, privacy and evidence, public authorities are often in an uncomfortable situation when dealing with digital technologies. Unlike medicines, digital products can indeed quickly become obsolete while the costing and reimbursement mechanisms to be implemented are still largely ad hoc. 

Learn about:

  • The most ambitious public health approaches related to dementia and frailty
  • Let’s understand how digital technologies are currently apprehended by policy-makers
  • Business policy models, which have been successful and how digital intervention tools innovators can play a key role in advancing research.
