3.5 Supporting the implementation of a web-based electronic health record
"eHealth for regions" partners exchange their knowledge to support the development of an integrated telemetric service system. Main focus of the co-operation is a web-based patient record in English and Polish language. This patient record should be used for communication across different sectors like universities and the medical network to optimise the treatment of heart patients (heart record). This heart record should be developed in an open form so that in future additional medical foci can be integrated. The system should be extended to whole Pomorskie region and to further Polish regions.
Partners: Germany, Poland
Overall Objectives:
- to support the implementation of the web-based electronic health record in the pilot region
Transnational Value Added and Methodology:
- "eHealth for Regions" partners from Finland provide experiences about electronic health records and German partners give organisational support to their Polish colleagues.
- The experiences from Poland gathered during the implementation of the web-based electronic health card should be transferred to the network partners. E.g. the English version of the health record could serve other regions as example.
Status of Implementation:
- The needs for information in the field of heart disease are described, in spring 2007 a pilot test is foreseen.
