The virtual consultation and the technological tools of remote medicine can play an important role in improving the efficiency of the health system of rural municipalities in Catalonia and, at the same time, avoid various costs for society (travel, opportunity costs, polluting emissions...). The study Digital Health Ecosystem Report prepared by the Cambra de Barcelona and Barcelona Health Hub estimated that the implementation of virtual consultation in primary care in rural areas would save society up to €117 M per year (the total for Catalonia as a whole would be up to €342 M). Thus, the savings for the rural population -those living in municipalities with less than 5,000 inhabitants and/or a population density of less than 300 inhabitants per km²- would represent 34% of the total of these 342 M€, a figure much higher than its weight in the population, 17%. It should be noted that Catalonia has 949 municipalities, of which 790 (83%) are considered rural. By items, if virtual consultation in these rural areas had been consolidated (60% of the total number of visits), the savings in medical visits would be €72 M per year, while in nursing care it would be €45 M per year. Taking these figures into account, virtual medical care could contribute to reducing territorial inequalities in healthcare and other public services between rural and urban populations. In this sense, the implementation of virtual consultation would not only be relevant for reasons of territorial equity, but also for cost reasons. For this cause, the study has calculated the savings by differentiating between urban and rural populations, with the aim, especially, of estimating the potential benefits for the population living in rural areas where costs and travel time are higher:
- Savings in transportation costs. Virtual consultation avoids the patient having to travel to the health center and, therefore, reduces the expenses associated with the cost of transport. According to a study by the Bank of Spain, the average distance from a rural municipality to a local service is 12.85 km, while in the case of an urban center, this distance is reduced to 2.12 km.
- Savings in polluting emissions. In addition to the reduction in transportation costs for patients' pockets, there is also a saving for society in terms of reduced emissions of polluting gases when traveling to the care center.
- Savings in opportunity costs. When we talk about opportunity cost, it is referring to the time that the patient spends on the consultation and that, for example, is not dedicated to carrying out an economic activity.
It is important to point out that the savings generated by the public healthcare system as a result of virtual consultation or other solutions related to digital health can be used to cover a new demand for healthcare services, without the need to increase the budget. It is fair to say that digital health has to seek a balance between the digitalization of patient care and face-to-face. The technology must allow access to face-to-face care to be of high quality and when conditions require it. As the WHO explains, telemedicine is a useful complement to face-to-face interaction, but does not replace it completely.

Orikine Bio, a biotech company developing a novel proprietary platform for cytokine-based therapies for autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, announces the successful closing of a €5.5m seed financing that will support the company to advance candidates through pre-clinical development. BHH member Asabys Partners, Barcelona-based VC firm focused on healthcare innovation investing from its fund Sabadell Asabys II, joins AdBio Partners, French life sciences venture capital firm and initial investor. Orikine Bio is a spin-off from the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) in Barcelona and was co-founded by Dr. Luis Serrano, Dr. Ariadna Montero, Dr. Javier Delgado, Dr. Alejo Chorny and AdBio Partners in 2022. The company’s unique synthetic biology platform delivers optimized and novel engineered cytokines called Foldikines©. Cytokines are proteins that are produced by the immune system and act as soluble messengers that control the entire range of immune responses, including their initiation, type, potency, and duration. Thus, dysregulated cytokine signaling triggers a wide variety of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, allergies, fibrosis, and cancer. Orikine Bio's Foldikines© have unique biological activities that are not available for natural cytokines, making them highly attractive as new drugs for therapeutic interventions. Currently, the company is validating the first Foldikine© candidates, which will advance to the pre-clinical stage with this new funding. The initial focus of the company is to advance these improved cytokines into clinical development for new therapies targeting autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. However, the versatility of the platform developed by Dr. Luis Serrano and his team will allow the development of new drugs for a wide range of immune-based diseases. Luis Serrano, co-founder of Orikine Bio and Director of the CRG, mentions: “Orikine Bio is the fifth spin-off launched by the Centre for Genomic Regulation in a short period of time, demonstrating that curiosity-driven research is a critical source for new idea generation and solutions for patients. The creation of this company has been possible thanks to the development of cutting-edge computational and experimental tools combined with decades of expertise in biochemistry”. Dr. Ariadna Montero, co-founder and Head of Biology at Orikine Bio, adds: “Protein design is a highly-precise task requiring accurate algorithms to generate reliable results. Our unique computational approach makes the process of protein design highly flexible and adaptable to almost any target, speeding up the development process for new drugs.” Sylvain Sachot, Partner at Asabys Partners, states “Orikine Bio’s uniqueness resides in the company’s profound understanding of the immunological processes underlying autoimmune and inflammatory diseases and its ability to modulate these anomalies. The company is targeting a large medical need, and we look forward to working with the management in developing and bringing new immune modulators to the market". “Orikine Bio's Foldikines© could become blockbusters drugs in immunology and this immediately convinced us of the potential of the project. We were highly motivated to cofound the company and shape the initial business plan. We are delighted to welcome Asabys Partners in the Seed Financing, all ingredients are in place for Orikine Bio to become a leader in its space” explains Clement Bertholet, MsC, Partner at AdBio. Alejo Chorny, Co-founder and CEO of Orikine Bio, adds “We are delighted to announce the successful completion of our seed financing round, a significant milestone for our biotech company focused on engineered cytokines for immune-mediated diseases. This funding injection not only validates the tremendous potential of our approach but also provides us with the resources to advance our groundbreaking work. We are grateful for the support and confidence shown by our investors and remain committed to delivering transformative therapies that have the power to reshape the lives of patients battling immune-mediated diseases worldwide”.

The city of Chipiona, in the province of Cadiz, will have this summer with the implementation of an online medical care service on its beaches. A service that aims to provide security and tranquility to any incident or health consultation that the thousands of bathers who attend the beaches may have. This is the first beach in Spain to launch an initiative that has, in addition to the support of the team of lifeguards and ATS working on the beaches, a telemedicine service that will cover, from the facilities of the lifeguard posts, any health problem that requires the review of a doctor remotely. The service is active since last June 15th and will be maintained until next September 15th from 11.00-21.00 every day of the week on the five beaches of the Andalusian municipality (Montijo, Cruz del Mar, Regla, Camarón and Las Tres Piedras) for the 19,000 inhabitants and tourists who visit these beaches every year. In this sense, the Town Council of Chipiona together with Instinto Deportivo bet on the use of technology to solve health needs through the One Click system, developed by the online health company and BHH member Ever Health, will allow to connect with doctors and quickly attend some of the most common diseases such as otitis or the appearance of fungus, often caused by the prolonged use of wet bathing suits and tight clothing, cystitis, skin lesions caused by constant exposure to the sun or insect or jellyfish bites, among other possible medical consultations linked to accidents, trauma or related to high temperatures, drought, change of environment or bathing in swimming pools and beaches. In addition, remember the importance of consulting truthful and professional sources of information, since it is always very easy to consult the Internet or friends and family. "We live surrounded by information, the possibility of consulting almost any topic on the internet is now commonplace and it is good to have access to information, but in health not everything goes, it is essential to contrast and to be able to have first-hand information" stated Rafael García, CEO and Founder of Ever Health. Telemedicine will play a fundamental role for any consultation, double medical opinion, or simply as a prevention tool, provided that they do not require urgent and immediate attention in person. In these cases, it is necessary to go to the nearest medical center or activate the emergency protocol and ambulance service.

- To improve the access to artistic performances and contribute to the social inclusion of people with dementia as well as children and teenagers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In a laboratory in Spain, they had the opportunity to do a DCM (Dementia Care Mapping) observing the reactions of the residents of the elderly home with the clowns, in order to be able to evaluate them from the specific point of view of dementia. That allowed them to be able to analyze the intervention and get knowledge.

Access to high-quality, affordable healthcare services is not only an ethical responsibility of nations, but it is also an essential requisite to revitalize the world’s economy. In such a scenario, the onus of finding solutions to global health issues lies on healthcare professionals, policymakers, CEOs, innovators, and visionaries across a broad spectrum of specialties.
The Health 2.0 Conference Dubai, held on 16th to 18th of December, attempts to reimagine the realm of healthcare by uniting some of the most distinguished experts from a wide range of specialties. The conference spotlights the latest developments in the domains of healthcare and wellness on its vibrant platform, while promoting networking, and the exchange of ideas between forward-thinking individuals and companies.
Health 2.0 has recently honored Silvia Micalo, CEO of BHH member Sunshineoxygen Healthtech with the Outstanding Leadership Award for her contributions to the healthcare field. Silvia is not only CEO, but also author of the book "Healthtech Innovation: How Entrepreneurs Can Define and Build the Value of their New products". Congratulations!- Contact BHH and let us know which day you want to come work at the BHH Headquarters.
- BHH will send you the link to an online form where you can register and pay directly. An invoice is, of course, provided.

- Stretched reality, which brings together augmented reality technologies (integration of computer-generated images with the user’s vision) and virtual reality (creation of immersive computer-generated environments), which have an increasing application in surgery and in the training of medical professionals, as well as in the treatment of phobias and other psychological problems.
- Personalized medicine, a trend in which the report identifies two enabling technologies: so-called omics techniques (genetics, protein, metabolomics, transcriptomics) and robotics. The first already have a wide application in the development of new drugs, oriented to specific genetic targets, but more limited in terms of individualized diagnosis. In robotics, the report cites examples such as the design of prostheses connected to the nervous system of patients who have lost a limb, or rehabilitation robots that help physiotherapists.
- Decentralized healthcare, which includes both telemedicine – which can reduce hospital admissions and increase the frequency of home visits to chronically ill patients – and remote monitoring, also aimed at reducing the number of periodic tests carried out in hospitals and which can allow more accurate control of the evolution of certain diseases, including alerts to professionals and families.
- Artificial intelligence (AI), of which the report highlights the applications in image diagnosis, where AI allows to quickly process thousands of images and extract more accurate information for diagnostics, and in machine learning, which allows to automate and accelerate processes -drug discovery, emergency triage…- or create virtual assistants that can reduce the time spent by professionals in simple or routine medical consultations.
- Patient empowerment is a trend based on all those technologies (wearables, medical apps) that give patients accurate information about their health and allow them to make autonomous decisions about how to manage it. It has been developed especially for chronic diseases such as diabetes, but very little has been developed for other pathologies.

Do you already know the RaDAR-PPI project? It's a European Commission co-funded initiative which aims to address the European urgent need for rapid detection of multi-drug resistant microorganisms and AMR management and control systems through the implementation of a value-based cross-border collaborative procurement of innovative solutions.
At the end of 2023 the RaDAR buyers group will launch tenders for innovative solutions to address the AMR challenge. In order to progress to tender in the most effective way, the Consortium wants to understand the market's ability to respond and how the buyers can facilitate supply chain innovation to deliver what is needed.
The group has therefore published a market sounding and call for innovative solutions, to open a dialogue with the supply chain and provide an opportunity for potential solution providers to express interest and provide feedback.
Therefore you are invited to fill out the Market Response Form to enable the buyers group to refine their clinical demand specification and inform their collaborative tender specification and strategy. You have until February 3 to fill out the survey and make yourself heard. The data collected will be used solely by the RaDAR Consortium for the finalities of the project. RaDAR will not share your data with third parties for any purpose.
Also, the market sounding will be followed by a series of Open Market Consultation workshops, which will be held both in person and online:
- International online workshop -1 March 2023
- Naples (hybrid event) - 2 March 2023
- Paris (hybrid event) - 8 March 2023
- Barcelona (hybrid event) - 9 March 2023
- San Sebastian (hybrid event) - 10 March 2023
You can register for the events and express interest for bi-lateral meetings between buyers and potential suppliers via the Market Response Form. All the information related to the project and the market consultation stage is available here.

Open to the public from December 1st, 2022 through March 26th, 2023, the exhibition will feature photographs taken of the first restoration and recovery works carried out in the 1970’s, a time when the Foundation was beginning to comprehend and communicate the unique artistic and cultural value of Sant Pau’s heritage.
