The gap according to me…
![Page 4: Leveling the playing field: the Global eHealth Innovation Network](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681682c550346895dddc475/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

• Massive exodus
• Record public unemployment
• Physician unemployment
• $? for health (<$8 B)
• 70% under poverty line
• Massive immigration
• Record employment levels
• Shortage of physicians
• $100 Billion
• 10% under ‘relative’ poverty line

The gaps across the world•The assets of the top 3 billionaires are
more than the combined GNP of all least developed countries and their 600 million people
•The income gap between the richest fifth of the world’s people and the poorest fifth is 75 to 1 (it was 30 to 1 in 1960)
•10 countries account for 84% of global research and development expenditures

Globalization, equity and uncertainty

What is the role of eHealth?
![Page 11: Leveling the playing field: the Global eHealth Innovation Network](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681682c550346895dddc475/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• The richest fifth of the world’s population has 74% of telephone lines
• The bottom fifth only has 1.5%• More than 50% of people in the world have
never used a phone• Chile, the country with the highest telephone
penetration in Latin America, has a teledensity of less than 25
• But, the telephone is not used efficiently even in countries where teledensity is above 90%
• We need more than technology to achieve change

Mind the (widening) gap!

10 times more Internet users in North America
than in the whole of Latin America
Canadians have 20 times more
access than Colombians
…and 600 times more than Haitians

There is also a language gap!
![Page 16: Leveling the playing field: the Global eHealth Innovation Network](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681682c550346895dddc475/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Incentives for carriers to serve underserved and
unserved
![Page 18: Leveling the playing field: the Global eHealth Innovation Network](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681682c550346895dddc475/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Should we be looking at all this differently?
![Page 19: Leveling the playing field: the Global eHealth Innovation Network](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681682c550346895dddc475/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
We have lots in common… Populations that care a lot about health
Huge expenditure in health and desperate need to increase efficiency
Low levels of computerization in the system
Lots of politics and big egos
No incentives for providers to use knowledge or technology
Confusion or denial
![Page 20: Leveling the playing field: the Global eHealth Innovation Network](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681682c550346895dddc475/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Can we overcome barriers together?
![Page 21: Leveling the playing field: the Global eHealth Innovation Network](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681682c550346895dddc475/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Program in eHealth Innovation
Mission:To help people access the
information and services they need, when and where they
need them, regardless of who they are.

“E-mail is no substitute for vaccines, and satellites cannot
provide clean water”
What can (should) we do?

How can we maximize success?
Effective international collaboration
Economies of scale Virtual and physical
resourcesBuilding on leadership
‘Real-enough-time’ evaluation
Strong input from all groups of decision-makers

Harnessing diversity• 1,070 patients surveyed up to this month at
University Health Network• They spoke 59 languages and came from 90
different countries• 60% said they have used the Internet (68%
as a source of health information)• 77% would like to communicate with
providers through e-mail and Web sites• 40% would like to participate in projects to
find solutions (in 33 languages and from 50 countries)
