Telemedicine has a broad scope in Norway supported by the national authorities. As a part of the research project 3P- Patients and Professionals in Partnership, a telemedicine service was established in the municipality of Risør, Norway for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The aim of this paper is to summarise and share the experiences from Risør. A qualitative research approach was used. The telemedicine service was an integrated part of the health services, having a close collaboration with general practitioners. Despite a detailed planning of the operation, administrative and economic challenges made the service closed after two years and replaced by services from an inter-municipal telemedicine centre.
