The main motivation that propels us to do what we do is to constantly further increase the safe purchase and distribution of medication via the internet. We firmly believe in the ehealth model and the opportunities it provides to people all over the world to purchase medication in the privacy of their own homes, in remote areas and where the offline medical services are at the end of their capacity.

The preconditions for ehealth services are guaranteed data security, expert medical involvement, checks & balances in quality of medication, advice and distribution and, last but not least, a regular assessment of the suitability of sales of all online medications.

The latter is our domain, the eHealth Medical Advisory Board. 

We advise eHealth platforms on a regular basis about which medication to add to their product lists and, even more important, which medication to de-list altogether because we deem them unsuitable for online offering for a variety of reasons.

These reasons may be for instance:

• The end-user cannot be ascertained without a doubt.
• The medication might be used for other purposes than intended.
• The side effects cannot be managed and tracked online.
• Better alternatives are available.

The platform brings together today's technology, doctors, customers and medicine. My job is to be a medical resource, which I do by offering professional medical responsible advice to all parties involved. In doing so, I find medical innovation an important part of my job.

Facilitating informed patient decisions and selecting appropriate medications for health issues is crucial. In my role at MAP, I collaborate with a proficient team to furnish evidence-based information on medicines, ensuring comprehensive healthcare support.

I think it is important that people have control over their health as long as it is made available in a responsible manner. An MAB is crucial in this regard and as chairwomen I bridge the gap between medical, ethical, and commercial.

The platforms we render our services to, and provide with our advice, are all internationally active players such as Dokteronline (www.dokteronline.com) and the menopause platform SeemeNoPause (www.seemenopause.com), both offering a wide variety of medication for a range of discomforts in many countries.

We help them with aforementioned advice and services but also

• assist them with quality assessments of their online anamneses,
• perform medical checks on product- and other content,
• provide them with market-intel on new products and changes in legislation and
• are available for general council to them.

We do not look at the eHealth world ‘through a medical straw’ but have at our disposal a wide variety of disciplines to delve from and are inquisitive and highly interested in our clients’ business ideas and business models as well. 

Are you a registered doctor or pharmacist? And would you like to become a member of the MAB, please contact our chairwoman for the possibilities.
