Health Is Wealth ― Strategic Visions For EuropeanHealthcare At The Beginning Of The

A healthcare system on a European scale is an enormous endeavour. Currently, these are severe differences evident in the national provisions. The dichotomy has to be addressed where individual national structures are oriented toward European standards, while the care to the individual is delivered locally.
The Strategic Vision aims to address the need for an overall strategy that can be adapted and implemented on the local bases.
It puts a specific emphasis upon cost containment. New mechanisms have to be implemented to control the cost of healthcare. Clear rules for delivery are needed to prevent the advent of multi-class healthcare. This requires the development of a new underlying philosophic paradigm.
