    by llkka Kunnamo, M.D., Ph.D.
    October 27, 2017
    As a practicing family physician and guideline developer in Finland in the late 1980s, I noticed a fast-growing body of medical knowledge and increasing access to patient data. But keeping track of all that data in a meaningful way seemed impossible. In addition, I saw there was a growing opportunity for knowledge authors to integrate information with individual patient data.

    by William Feaster
    October 7, 2017
    The health care industry is at a tipping point. Health care organizations have largely adopted electronic health record (EHR) technology to improve the quality and safety of care delivery. As organizations endeavor to improve the health of patient populations, the EHR by itself is no longer enough. We need to start thinking beyond what is happening in our systems to better understand and care for our populations.

    Økt kvalitet, tettere samarbeid mellom pasienten og helsevesenet, bedre samhandling mellom kommunehelsetjenesten og sykehusene, dette er uttalte mål i norsk helsevesen. I de mest innovative helsesystemer er de allerede kommet lang ved hjelp av teknologi og involvering av leger, klinikere og pasienter. På EHIN kan du få demonstrert vår journalplattform som brukes av fastleger, kommuner, sykehus og pasienter i 40 land. Vi får besøk fra en engelsk partner som benytter big data i forebygging av sykdom og utjevning av helseforskjeller. Du kan også se hvordan vi har koblet finsk innovasjon inn i vår internasjonale løsning for å følge opp diabetespasienter. Besøk vår stand 1-4 på EHiN 2016.

    Fra dårligst til best i klassen

    by Kirsti-Ann Johannessen
    June 24, 2016
    Hva gjør du når du har en befolkning med store helseutfordringer og driver et helsesystem som leverer blant de dårligste i klassen? Southcentral Foundation i Alaska omdefinerte pasienter til aksjonærer og tok de med på råd. Involvering av brukere, klinikere og tett samhandling mellom primær- og spesialisthelsetjenesten førte til økt tilfredshet og bedre kvalitet. Southcentral Foundation (NUKA) er etter endringene ansett som et av de beste eksemplene på omstilling av et helsesystem både i USA og internasjonalt.

    eHelse eller personsikkerhet - ja takk, begge deler

    by Hans Jacob Moe
    June 23, 2016
    Pasientdata må være tilgjengelig, men samtidig sikre personvernet til hver enkelt, noe som historisk sett har blitt oppfattet som utfordrende. Håkon Grimstad i Norsk Helsenett mener både tilgjengelighet og konfidensialitet er forutsetninger for optimal pasientbehandling. Vi snakker om sikkerhet og tilgjengelighet sett i sammenheng med pasientdata, og vi snakker med Håkon Grimstad, administrerende direktør i Norsk Helsenett. På Cerner sin konferanse «Collaboration Forum» i London, holdt han i midten av mars et innlegg om pasientsikkerhet sett fra et informasjonssikkerhetsperspektiv.
