Health Information Exchange (HIE)
The emirate’s health authority has been on a steady mission to improve and revolutionise healthcare since 2014.
The full implementation of HIEs across countries including the UAE, KSA, and Qatar is set to transform healthcare in the region as we know it.
Professionals from around the world can join the discussion on key digital health topics at the GCC eHealth Workforce Development Conference (eHWDC 2023), scheduled to take place in Dubai at the end of the month.
With its commitment to transforming healthcare as part of Vision 2030, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is poised to operate a comprehensive Health Information Exchange (HIE) system that could potentially surpass its global counterparts.
Efforts to connect data from various sources at the population level must also emphasize the principle of simplification, says Charles Sevior, Dell Technologies CTO for Unstructured Data Solutions.
Lab data is a first big focus of the initiative, focused on standardized exchange terminology.
The company said four hospitals are live on a new, full-service OCHIN Epic system, and that it is onboarding five more across six states.
Also, South Korea takes a further step to enable health data interoperability.
It connects individual medical data held by around 800 health institutions.
Also, Noted has integrated with the Medicly HIE to provide its users access to data across health facilities.
