Asseco promotes e-Health in Lower Silesia

Asseco has signed contracts with 9 medical centers in the Lower Silesia Province within the framework of e Health project that aims at the implementation of electronic medical records in the region. The medical centers will be equipped with new IT infrastructure, computer hardware and software, enabling efficient exchange of information. The net contract value amounts to PLN 8.9 million.

The project will result in the development of software to be operated on a regional scale, which will integrate IT systems used by individual partners in this undertaking. Such a solution will allow for easy exchange of electronic medical records of Lower Silesian patients. This will contribute to a significant improvement of the quality of patient services. In addition, quick access to patient data will increase the efficacy of treatment. The data security standards will be upgraded as well. Other important benefits will include the streamlining of medical personnel work and financial savings. The project is scheduled to be completed in April 2016.

“The regional system of electronic medical records is an important element of informatization in this region,” said Krzysztof Groyecki, Director of the Healthcare Systems Division at Asseco Poland. “In less than a year, the system will be connected at 9 large hospitals in Lower Silesia, but in the future it will be available also for other medical centers in the region,” he added.

The project involves the creation of the Electronic Medical Records Archive which will be integrated with local IT systems used by individual hospitals. Not all of such systems have been provided by Asseco. This is however not a problem because the newly developed system will be able to cooperate with software from various vendors. The contractor will be also responsible for the supply of IT infrastructure. Moreover, Asseco is going to upgrade IT systems used by 3 medical institutions to the new version of AMMS (Asseco Medical Management Solutions).
