This eHealth and eWelfare report was produced by the National Institute for Health and Welfare (THL), Finland, and FinnTelemedicum, the Centre of Excellence for Telehealth at the University of Oulu, from the results of the national eHealth implementation survey commissioned by the Finnish Ministry of Social Affairs and Health and the eWelfare survey that was conducted as part of the SADe programme funded by the Ministry of Finance. The eHealth survey describes the status and trends in health care information and communication technology (ICT) and eHealth usage in Finland in 2011, comparing the results with earlier surveys carried out in 2003, 2005 and 2007. The eWelfare survey was a national review of the electronic social services and social welfare client information systems currently available in Finland and of how they function in the social services context. This report also includes current information on Finnish eHealth and eWelfare policies and other "e" activities such as reviews on the main results of two other surveys performed in Finland during the same time period. This report is produced for international readers and gives a comprehensive picture of the current eHealth and eWelfare situation in Finland.
