Abstract

The transition from ordinary medical care to telemedicine has important benefits regarding the facilitation of healthcare services conducted on the basis of the use of technology, but at the same time it implies significant challenges for state Governments (which have to adopt proper regulation), for health care providers (which are at risk to perform new categories of malpractice, especially due to concerns regarding health data protection) and also for patients (who have to understand both the pros and cons of using telemedicine services). This paper has the aim to present the current context of telemedicine, at the level of Romania and at the level of the European Union, with a comparison between the European legal requirements and the efforts conducted by the Romanian authorities. Furthermore, we have considered useful to present real and practical examples from several countries, both European and American, which have the ability to be strong guidelines for the Romanian legislator
