Electronic health record and Telemedicine

Last June 29, the researcher Fabrizio Pecoraro of the Health and Society group of IRPPS participated in the 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐚. The conference was an opportunity to discuss the opportunities opened up by decree of 28 September 2023 for the innovation of the National Health Service, guided by the transition towards new technological infrastructures dedicated both to Telemedicine, i.e. the set of health services that can be carried out remotely thanks to the use of innovative technologies, and to the File, which allows the collection digital of the patient's clinical history. 

Pecoraro's contribution focused precisely on the Electronic Health Record, underlining the need to develop a tool that contains structured information and that is interoperable with other health information systems. Furthermore, the Dossier will have to play a role not only in supporting treatment, i.e. facilitating patient care and diagnosis and treatment operations between different professionals and healthcare facilities, but also providing data to decision makers and the research world for studies of an epidemiological and government nature.  

It's possible listen to the speech again here of the researcher.
