EHTEL: Your Digital Health and Care Stakeholder Forum.
EHTEL (the European Health Telematics Association) is a unique pan-European multidisciplinary stakeholder platform, bringing together organisations and individuals engaged in all aspects of digital health and care.
EHTEL’s distinctive structure enables the exchange of ideas, opportunities and knowledge with a community of 5,000 digital health and care experts and innovators. It does this through webinars and projects, leading to innovation in the delivery of eHealth solutions and the transformation of health and social care.
The association is well placed, in the heart of Europe, to bring together the voices of European stakeholder groups, and provide concrete insights into European policy. EHTEL facilitates interaction between all of them.
EHTEL’s growing membership includes more than 40 organisations from all relevant stakeholder groups. The multiple interests and viewpoints of its members enables EHTEL to take a uniquely holistic approach on the implementation of digital health and care solutions.

EHTEL adds value by identifying topics and opportunities for engagement for its members and creating synergies between them, as well as building relationships between European projects, Digital Innovation Hubs and Reference Repositories.
With its solid 25 years of expertise, EHTEL is one of the few European organisations that has made a strong contribution to the evolution of digital health and care and Europe’s digital society. During all this time, EHTEL has always focused on people, not just on technology.
Today, EHTEL is a community of digital health and care experts who are loyal to and engaged with EHTEL’s mission. These experts represent a wide diversity of stakeholders from around Europe and beyond. EHTEL is a one-of-a-kind close-knit community that likes “getting things done”.
