["The city-hospital link is based on the characteristics of the target population and its needs"]

Strengthening the city-hospital network is intended to improve the response to the needs of people who move back and forth through the healthcare system. Édouard Habib, Director of the Fédération régionale des dispositifs de ressources et d'appui à la coordination des parcours de santé d'Île-de-France, and Marie-Dominique Lussier, a geriatrician and expert in the field of health care pathways, discussed ways to achieve this goal. In particular, they specified that it was important to think in terms of target populations, to consider networking as a meta-organization capable of adapting to changing needs, and to transform digital tools into vectors for this networking.
