The application for digital patient path management (in Hungarian: “Betegút Menedzsment” short: BetMen) enables doctors to digitally plan and track patient care, from first aid to follow-up care. Due to the high degree of transparency, communication between general practitioners and specialists can be improved and a therapy optimized to the needs of the patient can be developed.

To further develop the program, Roche set up the "for individualized health care" foundation, which will continue to support the project in the future. The innovative program builds on the digital health portal EESZT and is made available to the population free of charge.

According to Minister Palkovics, the coronavirus crisis has presented the country with challenges that have highlighted the strategic importance of health innovations. He explained that tradition and innovation together represent a guarantee for development: thanks to the application donated by Roche, Hungarian patient care can now enter the 21st century.

Raffaella Bondi, the Managing Director of Roche Magyarország Kft., emphasized that the 125-year-old Roche company is committed to supporting the Hungarian health care system. Roche can offer international experience and innovative solutions in order to develop a sustainable and value-based health model. As a key player in the innovative healthcare industry, Roche seeks and supports Hungarian initiatives that help make modern, personalized therapies accessible while reducing their social costs. By 2030, Roche wants to offer three to five times more innovative solutions for patients at costs 50 percent lower than today.
