Moving healthcare to your fingertips: Klaus Phanareth at TEDxCopenhagen 2012

Imagine a future where we all, regardless of education or wealth, have the power and the knowledge to take charge of our own health. Our healthcare system will coach, support and empower us in using its services to do so anytime we need it. What if chronic disease no longer will require us to visit specialists or spend time in the hospital?

Klaus Phanareth explains how this is possible though the Epital concept that combines digitalization, accessible telehealth services and common sense.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.*
