OpenEHR Day

Over the past years, openEHR solutions with a multivendor environment built on an open and agile architecture have proven to be a successful approach to managing electronic healthcare records at any scale. There are several use cases with a focus on electronic health records (EHR) and related systems, validating the vendor-neutral data concept, where universal interoperability among all forms of electronic health data is ensured.

To discuss these topics and present successful use cases, you are kindly invited to the 2019 openEHR day being organized by the openEHR Foundation in collaboration with Better and other partners. The event will take place on Monday, October 28, 2019, at SkillsMatter London, United Kingdom.

A number of healthcare professionals will highlight ideas, opportunities and use cases to improve the current state of healthcare around the world and present their experience and vision for openEHR. Speaking sessions and a panel discussion will provide an introduction to openEHR for novices, along with guests talking about their experience with openEHR, its implementation, the scale of opportunity, and vision for its capabilities to facilitate interoperability in healthcare.

Please register your interest through Eventbrite, as spaces are limited. If you personally are unable to attend, please feel free to extend the invitation to colleagues within your network.
