title: [Legal adjustment in a European frame].
abstract: The legal and practical problems discussed concerning telemedicine within the western world seem quite similar: quality, litigation, professional law, data protection and financing are the main tasks that any health system within the EU is facing now. The working group T 6 of the European Health Telematics Association establishes a good basis for analyzing and developing a legal framework. However, in addition to the ongoing discussion about the necessary legal adjustments the engagement of Germany concerning these European aspects needs enforcement.
