Supporting digital health start-ups on their way to Reimbursement
The EIT Health DiGinnovation Programme aims to ease the reimbursement pathway and accelerate the uptake of digital health apps by healthcare professionals and patients.
The programme pairs start-ups that have a CE-marked digital health app with partners from EIT Health’s network and beyond. After forming an international consortium, the programme will provide tailored support to start-ups. The start-ups will also have the opportunity to pitch their projects in front of industry leaders, and the chance to receive funding.
