Abstract :
Disease management and personalised care aspire integrated, multi-disciplinary and pro-active health care systems. Through intensive data-mining and risk-assessment tailor made health programs are developed. ICT tools help patients, health care professionals, health insurers and researchers to process large amounts of personal health data and establish new connections. This may however conflict with the rights to privacy and autonomy.
