Renovation of Palazzo Beltrami 1 Omegna to be used as a Territorial Operations Centre

Home as the first place of care and telemedicine (Mission 6, Component 1, Investment 1.2)

The Recovery and Resilience Plan supports the large-scale adoption of telemedicine solutions and supporting healthcare innovation, through the following measures:

1. Home care as first point of assistance (Investment 1.2.1) - The goal is to increase the number of people treated in home care to 10% of the population over 65 through investment in hardware and increased service provision.

2. Territorial Coordination Centres (Investment 1.2.2) - The planned investment concerns the establishment of 602 Territorial Coordination Centres (“Centrali Operative Territoriali”) that are intended to link and coordinate various territorial, social-health and hospital services, as well as the emergency-urgency network.

The Territorial Coordination Centres will ensure the remote control of the devices provided to patients, support the exchange of information between health professionals, and constitute a reference point for caregivers and patient needs.

3. Telemedicine to better support patients with chronic diseases (Investment 1.2.3) - The investment aims to (1) finance projects that enable remote doctor-patient interactions, in particular diagnostics and monitoring, (2) create a national platform for screening telemedicine projects (linked to Mission 6 Component 2 Investment 1.3) and (3) finance ad hoc research initiatives on digital health and care technologies.

The investment is financed by the Recovery and Resilience Plan with EUR 3 billion.

As part of this investment, Palazzo Beltrami 1 Omegna was converted into a Territorial Coordination Center.

The project was financed by RRF funds with EUR 173,075.
