During the Health~Holland Visitors Programme special attention will be given to certain themes in which the Netherlands plays a pivotal international role. More information
about the themes of 2021 will be announced soon.
Health systems around the world are struggling with ageing populations, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases and the continuous search towards improved
quality, access, and affordability. The coronavirus outbreak posed additional challenges to health systems and its stakeholders. Challenges for which smart solutions had to be designed, but also
accelerated the implementation of already existing smart solutions. What we have learned about the future of health care in recent times? Which new or
underexposed smart solutions have proven to be effective? What methods and approaches still needs to be improved or redesigned? What will stay? And what will go?
The Netherlands is renowned for its well-functioning health system and innovative approaches and solutions. This year’s Health~Holland Visitors Programme will focus
on a virtual international exchange and dialogue of best practices and lessons learned from corona that will shape the future of health care. As a hosting country and innovation leader, The
Netherlands will share their experiences and expertise. Decision-makers in health from around the world are invited to join this international dialogue and discuss smart solutions that benefit
health systems and stakeholders during and after corona.
