Sharing medication data using the InterCare architecture.
Since June 1998 more than 20 partners from seven European countries are co-operating in the EC funded InterCare project. The primary objective of the InterCare project is to define, specify and implement cross-border products, called services here, that interoperate with one another in order to support shared care. These products should be based on the results of former European projects and must be validated in actual demonstration sites, one of which is located in the Schiedam region in the Netherlands. In this site the InterCare system is applied to medication information which involves integration of systems at the hospital, pharmacy and the general practitioners office. In this setting special attention is paid to security aspects.
