DIABCARD has developed the core of a chip card based medical information system (CCMIS) for patients with chronic diseases exemplified on Diabetes mellitus. The DIABCARD dataset was defined, a first prototype has been developed and implemented, and a pilot was run for three months. The results of the evaluation were presented in a Consensus Workshop. A flexible interface for the use of different smart cards and smart card readers was built in DIABCARD. The interface additionally allows the use of the BDT format or of other clinical interfaces. By having integrated high security levels, the project makes sure that the medical data is safe and protected from misuse.
