The objective was to develop, test, and evaluate a common set of indicators for monitoring eHealth in the Nordic countries, Greenland, Faroe Islands and Aaland, for use to support the development of Nordic welfare.The results of the network’s first three mandate periods were published in the Nordic Council of Ministers reports.
