During these training courses, lasting two hours each, the representatives of the Autonomous Province of Trento illustrate, after an initial presentation of the reference context, the governance and development model of digital healthcare in the province of Trento also including a reference to the process of reorganization of the territorial health services in progress. The TreC+ digital health ecosystem is then presented in detail (what it is, services offered and future developments), the initiatives in progress, a particular reference to telemedicine and the digital health interventions envisaged by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, also inviting the participants to install the application on their mobile phones.
