The Hispano-American Health Link (Enlace Hispano Americano de Salud: EHAS) seeks to improve international cooperation for developing the healthcare ICT sector in Hispano-American countries or other developing countries. It currently has up-and-running projects in Guatemala, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, the latter country being responsible for some of the foundation’s biggest and most important projects.

GMV, for its part, has been involved for some years now in the development of groundbreaking, medicine-related ICTs, for example, the antari Primary Care telemedicine system. This is a complete telemedicine system that brings teleconsultation services to developing areas that are currently hard put to provide their populations with a viable health service. It also considerably improves patient monitoring and management capabilities. Technology of this type is now being widely employed and is proving to be a viable way of offering top-quality health services to populations that had previously lacked such attention.

The antari Primary Care platform will soon be employed in one of the remotest areas where EHAS is currently working on, with the aim of improving maternal and child healthcare services in the region. With time, antari Primary Care will then be phased into many more of the projects currently being run by the foundation in several different countries.

For GMV it is a great satisfaction to see its game-changing developments having such a direct impact in developing areas, with the ultimate aim of improving the healthcare offered to its population. Projects like this one bring out just how much ICTs are acting as a driving force and motor of change in today’s and tomorrow’s world.
