HealthChain proposes an innovation model that is demand-driven, co-creative, geared to adoption and ecosystem enabled to complement current instruments. The project aims to develop health solutions meeting existing needs that will improve the quality of the health services for the citizens.
HealthChain builds up on top of five regional ecosystems from different EU countries: Murcia (Spain), Centro (Portugal), Western (Slovenia), Primorsko-Goranska (Croatia) and East Netherlands (The Netherlands). More regions are joining where HealthChain model will be implemented and validated based on local quadruple-helix connections from different EU countries. The interregional component provides a unique opportunity to cross-fertilise actual instruments and facilitate the market uptake of the solutions developed.

The main objective is to improve, with a digital solution integrated into the patient's electronic record, the accessibility and updating of the medication list of patients admitted to this clinical service, avoiding communication errors and negative consequences in terms of patient safety, with the aim, whenever possible, of active participation by the patient themselves, empowering them to better manage their medication.
The aim is to ensure accurate and complete knowledge of a patient's medication information in order to prevent medication-related incidents at all transition points in healthcare interfaces (Institute for HealthCare Improvement, 2006).
The end result will be the communication of the updated medication list to the next care provider or to the patient/caregiver.
