Health for All, Care for You : Unlocking the value of Personalised Healthcare in Europe
What is personalised healthcare? A methodology – enabled by modern genetic, biopharma, diagnostic and ICT technologies that attempts to tailor the treatment to the individual patient. Rather than one-pill-fits-all, doctors use growing knowledge of the human genome, and of other biomarkers of health and disease, to offer targeted prevention measures and to optimise treatment strategies. No one is suggesting treatment is not already personal, in that healthcare professionals make an assessment of each patient before deciding how to treat them.
