What is a National Digital Health Challenge?

As part of the Plan Dispositifs Médicaux Innovants France 2030, the National Digital Health Challenges "Dispositifs médicaux numériques en santé mentale" and "Dispositifs médicaux numériques au service du bien vieillir" have been launched. The aim is to emerge innovative digital healthcare technologies:

• in mental health,
• in psychiatry
and in the service of the elderly.

They also aim to ensure access to digital medical devices to meet the needs (unmet or partially met) of patients, caregivers and professionals for prevention, diagnosis, care, monitoring and recovery in the field of mental health and in the service of the elderly and their caregivers.

In order to achieve these objectives, action plans dedicated to each of the two National Digital Health Challenges are established. In particular, they enable supportfor innovators at all stages: development, evaluation, integration into pathways, training.
