he freedom of movement granted by the European Treaties to Europe’s citizens can only be a reality if those citizens know that they will receive high-quality, appropriate care if they fall ill when abroad. And those responsible for delivering health care may want to take advantage of the opportunities created by the European Union, sharing capacity in sparsely populated border areas or ensuring access to highly-specialized care for people living on small islands.The Europe for Patients project, financially supported by the European Union’s Sixth Framework Programme for Research, is seeking to understand how the opportunities offered by the European Union can be maximized, and how any potential problems can be overcome. This collection of case studies provides a wealth of experience of collaborating across borders in all parts of Europe.
