1. The gathering and use of health care information in electronic patient records, is the beginning towards
a greater leap of developing knowledge systems and real world evidence that will highly impact health.

stimulating innovation through outcomes-based financing and reimbursement systems, as well as
innovation in the support and services provided to patients.
