NORDeHEALTH: Patients' Input to Electronic Health Record – Opportunities and Challenges in Estonia
You will get an overview of how the system of patients’ online health record works in Estonia today. We will take you through the opportunities, but also challenges for the future and give an insight of how we plan to overcome those. As more and more emphasize are put on person-centeredness in healthcare, but also in order to fully achieve the potential benefits of digitalization, it is necessary to further explore how could electronic health records shift from solely being a documentation tool for health professionals to rather a tool for secure collaboration and communication with patients and family caregivers. We will introduce you our co-designing journey on patient-generated health data on blood pressure and blood glycose levels.
