38 AHAIP - why? Societal challenge ageing of the EU population Population 65+: mio mio Old-aged dependency ratio : to to 1 Socio-economic implications Budget constraints and unsustainable health and social systems average total spending on health care in the EU 27 by 1.5-2% of GDP by 2060 Total aged-related expenditure (inc. health, pensions, long-term etc.) by 4.75 % by 2060 in the EU average Shrinking workforce in the care sector and insufficient number of health specialists Innovation and active & healthy ageing Great market potential and promise of active and healthy ageing solutions - 9% of GDP in innovation capacity, but Innovation (in all forms) needed to address changing needs A number of bottlenecks and weaknesses, on demand and supply side, such as citizens' inability to use innovations, absence of incentives for innovation, lack of clear business models for integrated care, public procurement barriers, inadequate regulatory frameworks etc. ICT for Health Benoit Abeloos Enabling smart integrated care WS 18 th Jan

39 AHAIP what? Objectives and headline target A triple win for Europe enabling EU citizens to lead healthy, active and independent lives while ageing improving the sustainability and efficiency of social and health care systems developing EU and global markets for innovative products and services, thus creating new opportunities for businesses Overarching goal by 2020 increasing the average healthy lifespan (HLYs) in the European Union by 2 years (considering gender and MSs variations) and improve quality of life ICT for Health Benoit Abeloos Enabling smart integrated care WS 18 th Jan

40 Operationally innovative how? Building on coherent and integrated, stakeholder-led, citizen-centred and innovation driven actions Pooling available resources and expertise and creating incentives to innovate and fostering initiatives across different policy areas by bringing together all actors in active and healthy ageing related areas, from both the public and private sector at EU, national and regional level and bring about synergies Closing the gap between research and market in the area of healthy and active ageing by speeding up the uptake of innovation Matching supply and demand side by triggering demand driven measures and mechanisms (e.g. pre-commercial public procurement) Scaling up and multiply successful innovation at EU level, through demonstration pilots, trials and deployment with the use of different instruments Leveraging innovation in investment through better use of EU funding, e.g. new financial instruments, structural funds, FP7, EIB, but involving all stakeholders in financial contributions ICT for Health Benoit Abeloos Enabling smart integrated care WS 18 th Jan
