Denmark is among i nternational frontrunners when it comes to integrated healthcare servi ces.
\nA coherent and integrated healthcare system is key to sol ving the demographic challenges and reduce patient length of stay at h ospitals. A high degree of coherence means that Denmark can address ne wly diagnosed cancers with clinical pathways\, which connect hospitals \, clinics\, GPs and the patients. This has already led to remarkable progress in Danish cancer survival.
\nA coherent and integrated healthcare system with a high degree of digitalization enables real-ti me sharing of electronic data and makes it possible to initiate early diagnostics and address chronic diseases in new ways\, where the patie nts are empowered and involved in handling their own disease.
\nElectronic communication and sharing of information enable municipalit ies\, home care staff and the hospital to support elderly citizens to stay in their own homes as long as possible. As a result\, the patient s experience fewer admissions and shorter length of stays at hospital\ , and the risk of frailty\, leading to long hospital admissions\, is d rastically reduced.
