BeyondSilos is an EU co-funded pilot project that allows providers in seven European regions to implement and pilot integrated social and health care services. Up to 10,000 people in Northern Ireland, Bulgaria, Spain, Italy, Portugal and Germany are receive improved services by 2015. The services are being piloted and evaluated for a period of two years. A key role in the services is played by different ICT tools (from home health monitoring to shared data records) that are utilised to enable better cooperation between care professionals, family members and those receiving care. The BeyondSilos pilot capitalises on integrated care models and pathways that have their origin in another big European initiative launched in 2013: the SmartCare pilot. Both projects collaborate closely and the partners in BeyondSilos are able to learn from experiences gained in SmartCare to make the next step towards full integration of social and healthcare services
