The second edition of the telemedicine congress in October 2014 in Bad Kissingen was a success. About 150 participants from the whole German speaking area came to Bad Kissingen to experience a substantial, interesting and high quality conference. The organizers; in addition to the Center for Telemedicine Bad Kissingen (ZIM), is the Bavarian representation of the German Society for Telemedicine this year, gave a positive summary of the congress. The Congress gave an opportunity for delegates to gain insight, network and develop business relationships. The diversity of topics around telemedicine provided lively discussions between participants, guests and speakers. The congress showed, that the networking of medical competence centers with small hospitals and medical practitioners enables special knowledge to reach allover Germany e.g. reaching remote areas as well as eliminating sector borders through telemedicine. Gerhard W. Meyer, CEO MEYTEC, gave a lecture about “Stroke Emergency Mobile (STEMO) – better supply of stroke through reducing time”. MEYTEC GmbH was also an exhibitor on the congress.
