Telehealth development in the WHO European region: Results from a quantitative survey and insights from Norway.

Based on WHO's 2022 survey, the use of telehealth in the WHO European Region is on the rise. However, merely having telehealth in place is not sufficient for its successful and sustained use for care provision. Responses also uncovered regional differences and barriers that need to be overcome. Successful implementation and scaling of telehealth requires rethinking the design of health and social care systems to create robust, trustworthy, and person-centred digital health and care services.
