Action 21: Propose legislation on ICT interoperability

As part of the review of EU standardisation policy, propose legal measures on ICT interoperability to reform the rules on implementation of ICT standards in Europe.

Action 24: Adopt a European Interoperability Strategy and Framework

Promote interoperability by adopting in 2010 a European Interoperability Strategy and European Interoperability Framework

Action 77: Foster EU-wide standards, interoperability testing and certification of eHealth systems by 2015 through stakeholder dialogue

epSOS contributions to standardsepSOS contributions to standards

epSOS selected and influenced international standards: IHE, OASIS, HL7

With the successful IHE connect-a-thons in Bratislava and Pisa, epSOS proved being implementable and is now operational for general public

The project is working together with a new born OASIS TC in order to find feasible, real-world, and secure solutions to the 112 use case

It provided the e-Health international community with a new profile, the Cross Community Fetch (XCF)

It is reality-checking several European engagements for the fitness of use in the e-Health “wild”: NSL/TSL, eSignature, x-border recognition

Results are already being reused and epSOS is extensively extended by national engagements: portals, system integration, security extension

eHR QeHR Qtntn Recommendations: cross-border Recommendations: cross-border

Strengthen national certification in order to improve average quality and to enable in a second step the Trans-European harmonisation, improving comparability and portability of content. 

Promote equivalence of certificates across Europe by validating at European level both the functional descriptive statements of EuroRec and the IHE profiles. 

Consider the possibility to create a cross-border “Register of Quality Labelled or Certified Clinical Software”, offering information about the products (complete EHR systems as well a software modules) and documentation about the certification process.

CIP Call 6 Objective 3.6: Adoption and taking up of CIP Call 6 Objective 3.6: Adoption and taking up of

standards and profiles for eHealth interoperabilitystandards and profiles for eHealth interoperability

Funding Instrument: Thematic Network – 1 M€ Drive adoption of interoperability standards and specifications at

European level; Drive adoption of eHealth Interoperability Testing Guidelines. Drive closure of key gaps in interoperability testing tools. Drive adoption of a two-level labelling and certification process

(European level and national/project level) Ensure that all necessary phases to attain eHealth interoperability shall

be taken into account and addressed properly. Propose and implement solutions or process improvement to address

barriers to standards adoption (as described in eHealth-Interop report as a result of M403 phase I).

Include relevant organisations and consortia recognised by the market or by regulation and having demonstrated, well established and several years experience in standards or specifications development, testing or quality labelling.
