Integrated care is based on interdisciplinary and cross-sector attendance of a patient. Seamless communication of relevant information is an important prerequisite thereof. ByMed Connect applies the standard EN 13606 that specifies an information architecture for electronic health record exchange and will evaluate it in medical routine. The project enables health care professionals to seamlessly exchange relevant data needed at the various focus points within the shared care scenario. Therefore, a communication solution is developed that follows an adaptable, interoperable and thus also internationally applicable European approach.
