title: EDI developments in Dutch health care.
abstract: In the past two years EDI developments in Dutch Health Care have gained some momentum. These developments are focussed on the communication between hospitals on the one hand, and General Practitioners, Health Care insurers and suppliers of health care products on the other hand. Experiences show that although the results are promising there is a great need for broadly accepted standard EDI messages based on a thorough analysis of the existing information exchange between organisations.
