HIMSSCast Presents: Healthcare Without Borders 1: Why Cross-Border Healthcare?
HIMSSCast · 2026-05-06 · 14 min
Episode notes
Formal cross-border care in Europe accounts for less than 1% of health spending, but that number doesn’t tell the whole story. For some 150 million European patients living near internal borders, the nearest care, the shortest wait, or the best specialist for their situation, may be in another country. Join HIMSS’ Tom Leary and Health Connect Partners’ Dr. Petra Wilson for Episode 1 of “HIMSSCast Presents: Healthcare Without Borders” as they discuss how AI and virtual care are accelerating healthcare’s shift from a location-bound to a borderless activity.
