The definition of a general practice medical workstation: the ISAAC approach.
Within the principal objective of ISAAC of developing information technology support for the General Practice, the project aims at the definition of a Global Architecture valid for GPs all around Europe. This is achieved with the definition of a Functional Reference Model describing GP's functions. Professionals from the Primary Health Care (PHC) area are extensively involved in the project. Prototypes have been and will be defined to test the project approach in real life conditions. The prototypes test the usability of a local information processing environment and the integration with other components of the Health Care System.
