A comparative study of EPR projects in Denmark.
The EPR-Observatory--a public funded project organization--has monitored Danish EPR-projects with respect to various parameters such as diffusion and diffusion rate, barriers and limitations, experience gained. Furthermore, the Observatory has aggregated and disseminated the results and has established a constructive dialogue between the Danish EPR projects. The Observatory has also focused in the later years on analysis of common frames of reference for EPR systems. The National Board of Health and some of the larger counties have developed such frames. First generation systems have been implemented in a few counties with moderate coverage, but a number of projects developing second generation systems are making progress, and the market situation is quickly maturing. There are still, however, major problems in the practical implementation of the systems.
