Welcome to the Institute of Health and Society (HELSAM)
At the Department of Health and Society, we base our work on a complex understanding of disease, health and health systems. This characterizes the research, teaching and dissemination at the department.
An introuction video of the Institute of Health and Society from head of institute Terje P. Hagen.
Our institute offered a digital lecture giving a basic introduction to the Norwegian health care system. The lecture is primarily intended for students without basic knowledge of the Norwegian health care system, e.g. foreign students and master students without background in the health sciences or in health management/health economics. The lecture is now available at the lower end of this webside
