At present, healthcare is nationally organised and keeps within its borders. There is no equality of opportunity for access to health care facilities. Cross-border projects offer a way to dismantle these hurdles and overcome them. Healthcare in Lower Austria and the neighbouring Czech districts of South Moravia and South Bohemia rely on their own existing infrastructure and resources, although care facilities on the other side of the border are often easier to reach. This is why, the project aims to ensure the health facilities in the border region are optimal for all residents. The overall objective of the project is to encourage the regions of Lower Austria, South Moravia and South Bohemia to engage in cross-border cooperation in the healthcare system and enable an exchange of experience between the partners, as well as cooperate in a practical manner. The participation of NÖGUS and the Czech districts of South Moravia and South Bohemia in the expansion of cross-border hospital and/or emergency cooperation (as core outputs) ensures the quality and sustainability of the project, which will primarily benefit the population of the border region. In the long term, the project aims to bring the services of the respective healthcare systems into line with the needs of the local population in order to provide equal access to medical care on both sides of the border, thereby contributing to the sustainable improvement of the living conditions of the population. This is to be achieved through the mutual and optimal use of health infrastructure and resources. By establishing cross-border hospital cooperation, the medical transfer of knowledge is promoted and patient treatment processes are streamlined. Through the expansion of cross-border emergency cooperation, the project helps to reduce the rescue services’ arrival times. The cross-border approach is of particular importance to the project. In terms of their characteristics, the project objectives could not be achieved on a purely national or regional level. Healthcare facilities in both Lower Austria and the Czech Republic therefore need collaborative partners on the other side of the border. The project represents an innovative approach by initiating collaboration between clinics and rescue services, thereby laying the foundations for practical cross-border patient care. (English)
