Announcement
Electronic Health Record Systems (EHRs) are core in eHealth.
Purchasers, Governments and Software Vendors are facing questions such as:
Which functionalities must an EHR cover?
Does such system meet the security and privacy requirements?
Is the system operational for a specific domain?
What kind of authority can assess the quality of a particular system?
Is the EHR certified and by which body?
What are the quality criteria?
Is it possible to perform a self-assessment?
What are the financial consequences?
Where can procedures be found?
There are many issues open. In the effort to achieve optimal development within Europe, EuroRec has set up a system which enables the cross-border quality assessment of EHR systems hereby considering specific local needs and characteristics.
The organizers welcome you in spring in Portoroz, where you will learn directly from acknowledged European experts the current standing of their efforts in Quality Labelling and Certification of EHR systems.
The meeting will take place in 10 th floor in one half of Emerald room. Click here for more info on the location.
