Existing health care systems are designed to react on illness and are optimized to manage illness. The widespread use of communication and information technologies has facilitated the delivery of medical services at a distance, which is known as telemedicine [1]. Ranging from tele- and videoconferencing to robotic surgery, telemedicine has extended the reach of medical services from elite medical institutions to remote villages in Finland and isolated Greek islands. New approaches have also forced changes in clinical practices, the most notable being the introduction of electronic medical records and information and communications technology. This new paradigm is known as eHealth [2, 3].
