Health Labs4Value – Accelerating patient-centred digital healthcare solutions:
Health Labs4Value is a transnational initiative supported by the Interreg Central Europe programme aiming to accelerate the adoption of patient-centred digital healthcare solutions across Central Europe. The project addresses systemic challenges in ageing populations and rising chronic conditions by establishing collaborative “Living Labs” where healthcare providers, patients, policymakers, and innovators co-create, test, and validate practical digital tools and service models.
By applying open innovation practices and value-based healthcare principles, Health Labs4Value fosters cross-sectoral cooperation, supports the transfer and scaling of innovations to improve care delivery, enhance patient safety, and optimise health system efficiency. The project stimulates sustainable, people-centric innovation ecosystems yielding tangible benefits for patients, healthcare professionals, and regional stakeholders.
Health Labs4Value creates territorial living labs where healthcare organisations, policymakers and patients co‑design and test digital solutions, fostering social innovation and social entrepreneurship to improve care delivery across Central Europe.
