How can policy and incentives turn health and care ecosystems into lasting systems? In this episode of the THCS Podcast experts discuss governance, national mirror groups, and how Europe can scale transformation beyond projects.
Every ecosystem has a heartbeat, but without the right policy and strategy, that heartbeat can fade. Across Europe, ecosystems are experimenting with new ways of deliveringcare. Yet as the WP9 survey showed, lack of incentives and weak policy support remain the biggest barriers to change.
This episode of the THCS Podcast explores how policies can be designed not to suffocate innovation, but to fuel it.
Juha Teperi from Finland unpacks the policy levers that matter most. Lisa Leonardini shares how Italy’s National MirrorGroup brings stakeholders into one room to align national and European priorities. And Joanna Lane from the Netherlands reflects on how advisory structures can translate local lessons into European strategy.
Together, we search for the “sweet spot” where policy, strategy, practice, and passion meet and show why ecosystems aren’t a luxury, but Europe’s survival strategy in a complex future.
