New Innovative Polish Platform for handling investment projects launched by the Polish Ministry of Health (abbreviated POPI for short)

Purpose of existence

The main task of the Polish Platform for Handling Investment Projects (POPI) is fast and accurate implementation of broadly understood investment projects, which is (as the Polish Ministry of Health maintains) one of the most important activities of the Ministry of Health. In order to bypass many entities that would be involved in the implementation of a given investment, the Ministry of Health brought to life the POPI platform, which automated the above-mentioned process and thus facilitated navigation in the area of investment projects and increased the number of investment projects implemented in the area of health. The platform for servicing investment projects of the Polish Ministry of Health is a place bringing together entities that are directly involved in the process of launching investment projects. As part of this platform, entities can apply for funds for any investment co-financed by the Ministry of Health. Additionally, the POPI platform can function as a place where applications are assessed, and the given investments are monitored and settled. It should also be remembered that mutual contact regarding the implementation of specific investments is also part of POPI.

The Investment Project Support Platform (POPI) is available at the following address:

e-inwestycje.mz.gov.pl

It is also important that in order to fully use the POPI platform, it is required to set up an account through a certified profile, and to submit the application with the use of a qualified electronic signature.

INSTRUCTION ON HOW TO GO THROUGH THE POLISH ELECTRONIC PROCEDURE ON NATIONAL COURT REGISTER PORTAL TO CHANGE DATA OF POLISH COMPANY WITH INTERNATIONAL SHAREHOLDING

Brand New Online Portal of the Polish Register of Entrepreneurs of the National Court Register

On 1st July 2021 in Polish jurisdiction a revolutionary change has taken place. Namely, there has been amended an Act on the National Court Register (Journal of laws of 2021, item 112 as amended).[1] The amendment is about an introduction of an electronic registration procedure. Especially the form of filing applications for the entry in the Register of Entrepreneurs of the National Court Register will be changed.[2] The amendment mainly concerns the registration issue of the limited liability company and the partnerships.

The National Court Register Act amendment is caused by a necessity to implement the European Parliament directives and the EU’s Council directives on some of the company law aspects (2017/1132 EU; 2012/17/ EU, etc.).[3] The issue of the adaptation to the European Union law can be found in the first article (art.1) of the Amendment Act of the National Court Registration Act.

MEDICINE TELE-SECTORS- TELE-TECHNOLOGIES AND NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR PATIENTS – PART TWO

SECOND PART- TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENT OF SPECIFIC TELEHEALTH SECTORS

SECOND PART- TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENT OF SPECIFIC TELEHEALTH SECTORS

Sectoral legal advice for clients from the telemedicine sector requires from lawyers to constantly monitor the market in this sector and constantly expand their knowledge of market needs. It is the duty of every lawyer of KIEŁTYKA GŁADKOWSKI to be up-to-date with the sector of economic activity on which they provide legal services. Proper legal advice requires from lawyers to know the market practice of a given sector, and above all, knowledge of complex IT terminology and the basics of the pharmaceutical market.

I Telehealth trends’ perspectives

On the Telehealth Investment Trends we can have a look from different perspectives.

  1. One of these perspectives is a funding perspective. In the 2nd quarter of 2021 we can notice a funding record broken for the 4th quarter in a row (from the 3rd quarter of 2020). The deal count amounted 163 deals and the funding amounted 5,038 (in millions of dollars).
  2. The continental differences. It is explicitly noticeable that European investment nearly quintupled QoQ to reach a record high of $915M. Asian investments almost halved, north American investment slightly increased but European made an incredible investment growth which might be a long-perspective tendency (especially regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and Europe’s ageing an increasingly digitalized society). Among these reasons and investment tendencies the polish executive in the abovementioned ordinance included the procedures to impart instructions about e- medical prescription realization, additional treatment, tests realization (including laboratory tests) and possibility to sign up an Online Patient Account[1]. These procedures and medical services requirements can be (and in deed will be for sure) unquestionably helpful for older people who are yet to learn with increasingly used IT systems.
  3. The differences between early-, mid- and late- stage deal percentage. It is worthy to notice that in the 2021 early-stage deal share tracked at a historical low but at the same time the late-stage share at its high level (12% in comparison to previous 8%). This may reflect the increasing sophistication and maturity of the telehealth industry and of course the maturity and investment development and advancement of telehealth entities.

MEDICINE TELE-SECTORS- TELE-TECHNOLOGIES AND NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR PATIENTS

MEDICINE TELE-SECTORS- TELE-TECHNOLOGIES AND NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR PATIENTS

Nowadays an issue like telehealth or telemedicine is not something abnormal, extraordinary or an extravagancy for richer part of the society. Moreover under circumstances of COVID-19 pandemic the telehealth sector became more known (thus in many countries telemedicine is a well-known medicine  and services sector) and, what is more relevant, it became one of the most (or even the most) crucial and indispensable way to communicate with the doctor and to take care of yourself.

Fast, easy to operate, straightforward and accessible for every internet and phone users telehealth expanded into our life and our health-life. It is a undoubtful fact that it is one of the most rapidly, dynamically, successfully branch of economy, especially in the life sciences sector. The 4th economic revolution we are experiencing and participating (consciously or unconsciously) impressed us on the fact that an iphone just a smartphone has become the command and management centre of our lives. Therefore we also use our phones (electronic devices in general) to control, observe and manage our health- life or even health life of our children, relatives and pets. Companies have long noticed this medical-technological trend, but now (also due to the global situation) it has significantly accelerated.

In support of this thesis, we want to submit you a new report (CB Insights report) about the state of telehealth sector and polish, detailed regulation (The Minister of Health ordinance from 12th August, 2020) about the tele-med-guidance rules.
