With the topic, "How do Smart Card Technologies leverage with worldwide e-Healthcare systems?" Gilbert's presentation explored the current state of e-healthcare systems and discussed the advantages of applying smart card technology on existing and future e-healthcare infrastructures. He emphasized the importance of adapting smart card-based healthcare systems to conform to local requirements, citing the differences in smart card adaptation between countries like Taiwan, Austria, Germany and Hong Kong. Gilbert concluded his presentation by enumerating the benefits of adopting smart card-based e-health networks, which not only impact administrative areas by way of reduced costs, streamlined administration and improved communication networks and information sharing, but also provide healthcare recipients with increased protection from security breaches and fraudulent acts.
