Abstract
The geographical morphology of Greece has a significant effect on the structure and operational characteristics of the Greek health care system. The remote location of many rural health care centers and the concentration of major hospitals in the few big cities have an effect on both the quality and availability of health care that is provided. We are developing a strategic plan that would allow hospitals and health care centers across Greece to exchange medical data in digital form and have access to telemedicine and teleconsulting facilities. Two pilot networks are currently being implemented. The first network is designed to allow for telemedicine and teleconsulting services on the island of Evia. The second pilot network will be an image management and communication system (IMAC) and will be implemented in the Onassio Hospital in Athens. Preliminary results are very promising for the final implementation of this pilot project.
