EU/CEN II | |
| The second EU/CEN workshop on the electronic healthcare record |
| Project Nr: | HC 3101 | Group: I | Project Duration: 15 months |
| Key words: | |||
| Mission: | The second workshop of the EU/CEN (European Standardisation Committee) aims to ensure convergence amongst the various initiatives which are working towards the implementation of standards-based, widely applicable and communicating healthcare records. During the Third Framework programme, an AIM-CEN Workshop on the Medical Record took place, where relevant AIM (Advanced Informatics in Medicine) projects and CEN project teams could exchange interim results. The second EU/CEN workshop will be a "working workshop", with intensive preparatory work aimed at bringing strong cohesion between healthcare record users and solutions currently being developed in these projects and other important initiatives at national level, as well as standardisation proposals from the CEN/TC251 new project team(s) on the electronic healthcare record. The workshop proceedings will be published, followed by a book with the major contributions and conclusions. | ||

During this phase of the European projects and initiatives when impressive work is being done to develop, test and implement standards-based widely applicable and communicating healthcare records, it is extremely important to provide several actions aimed at ensuring convergence amongst these various initiatives as well as optimal adequation between user needs, R&D efforts, and standardisation efforts. During the Third framework programme, one such action was organised (Apr, 1993) under the format of an AIM-CEN Workshop on the Medical Record”, where relevant AIM projects and CEN project teams could exchange interim results. We are offering here to organise a
"2nd EU/CEN Workshop on the Electronic Healthcare Record", to be held on May, 23-24 97, i.e. early enough to influence the latest stages of the ongoing projects towards optimal convergence. It will be a "working workshop" with intensive preparatory work aimed at bringing strong cohesion between:
The workshop will offer plenary sessions with presentation of the HCR perspectives of the various projects, project teams, and user categories, and discussion seminars bringing together the various actors around specific HCR topics. Deliverables will be the workshop itself, publication of the proceedings, and finally publication of a book with the major contributions and main conclusions.

Users involved The users will be representatives from the HCR users identified in the current Health Telematics Sector Project clusters. Technologies and/or approach used During preparatory work, liaison between co-ordinator and other contractors, committee members, discussion leaders and speakers will be organised through HDMP’s electronic mail facilities. Expected benefits for the citizen Enhanced probabilities of coherent results from current expansive efforts to provide widely applicable and communicating healthcare records Expected benefits for the users of the application Not relevant Expected benefits for the European Industries More rapid delivery of coherent products and standards better fitted with user requirements. Contribution to EU-policies This will hopefully contribute to the success of the current European Union investment in healthcare telematics (DGXIII; CEN) offering competitive advantages to European industries in this sector, and better services in the healthcare sector for the citizens. |
