[The telematic platform trial concept. An attempt at definition and clarification].
A telematic platform provides a comprehensive infrastructure for communication of health data among several participants in the health care system. The planned introduction of the electronic health card and accompanying measures in 2006 is the first step towards the realisation of a telematic platform. The course for further development of the platform will be set during this important initial phase.
