As part of the project, e-services have been launched for patients, which are also available in applications for mobile systems:
Functionality to ensure the production of the System’s electronic medical record and the sharing and exchange of medical documents in electronic form:
– individual external medical records and medical data of patients (sharing of documents with patients);
– orders and results of external services (exchange of documents with service providers);
Functionality that provides patients with access to their medical data via a user account. Access to the user account requires individual authentication.
Electronic registration for appointments with specialists and general practitioners
The functionality builds and provides access to a register of information (metadata) about documents included in electronic medical records produced in medical entities cooperating with the Project.
The Patient Emergency Data functionality provides direct access to a collection of data of individual patients, (critical for life and health emergencies).
Service for the electronic acquisition (obtaining) of data on a patient’s health status (past illnesses, treatments, etc.) and medication taken in the admission/hospitalization procedure or visit to a treatment facility.
Functionality providing access to informational, educational and instructional materials (content) on:
– national/local prevention programmes and actions;
– availability of medical services (scope, locations, dates), required preparation for diagnostic tests, application of pro-health recommendations (e.g. nutrition, physical activity, seniors’ health, maternity, etc.), formal requirements (documents, eligibility procedures, etc.), and the list of services available.
Applications for mobile systems aggregating the functionalities of the products described above.
Functionality to ensure the creation of a central archive of image data (DICOM) including:
– histories of examinations in radiology and diagnostic imaging
-examinations outside the field of radiology, including, but not limited to: digital ECG, OCT, films from laparoscopes and endoscopes, skin lesions, dermatological lesions
Functionality to ensure that imaging examinations can be displayed, shared, consulted and developed using clinical tools.
Functionality to provide access to diagnostic studies from local DICOM sources.
The ‘Multidisciplinary e-Medical Consilium’ service will enable doctors to hold a medical consilium in full medical rigour without having to physically gather in one place at one time. Doctors will have direct access to the patient’s medical records, on which they can perform all activities in accordance with the medical consilium process, which will significantly shorten the execution of medical procedures.
Any decisions made within the e-Consilium, e.g. a referral to hospital, are signed electronically and become legally valid. This is a very positive change for patients – they do not have to leave their hometown to get a specialist’s opinion, nor do they have to take any documentation with them – everything is available to doctors in the system.
The E-Consilium will allow doctors to make a diagnosis together and use the knowledge of experts who work in different centres to do so. This virtual surgery, is also a convenience and security for doctors – the platform allows everyone to see the patient’s results, and the result is electronically signed by all participants.
