The European Commission initiates a sequence of initiatives aimed at boosting the adoption of digital health records.
On Thursday, February 13, 2025, Solingen City Library will host an event as part of the "Library plus" series. The focus of this event will be the introduction and effective use of the electronic patient record (ePA).
The ePA is a digital health record system that securely stores and manages comprehensive patient health data, including medical history, lab results, medications, and treatment plans. It is accessible by various healthcare providers, enabling seamless sharing and updating of patient information across different healthcare settings. This improves care coordination and patient outcomes by reducing errors and facilitating efficient, data-driven medical decisions.
At the event, Claudia Wackes, director of the advisory center of the consumer center Solingen, will speak about the ePA. She will highlight how the ePA improves collaboration by offering a single, shared record with no risk of outdated or duplicate data. It also allows patients to participate actively, helping customize their care through their input.
Security and privacy are maintained rigorously in the ePA system. Access is logged, and it is controllable by the patient. By enabling real-time data access, the ePA helps healthcare professionals avoid redundant tests and errors, facilitating faster and more precise care decisions.
The event is not an advertisement, but an opportunity to learn about the ePA and its benefits. Registration is required and can be done via [email protected] or 0212-290-3210. Admission to the event is free.
The "Library plus" event series is a cooperation between the city library, the senior office, and the Bergische Adult Education Center (BVHS). The event will provide important information about the ePA, ensuring a smoother healthcare process by providing healthcare providers with relevant, consistent, and role-specific access to patient information throughout the care journey.
Join us at Solingen City Library on Mummstraße on February 13, 2025, at 3:00 PM to learn more about the ePA and its potential to enhance healthcare quality and safety.
