Abstract

This article describes handling medical data in a healthcare system based on electronic healthcare records. At a medical unit level, data storage requires both accurate collecting and high security. The proposed information model complies with EN 13606, which is a European health data communication standard approved by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) and partly approved by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
