title: Consent-based access to core EHR information: the SUMO-project.
abstract: Lack of access to updated medication information is a challenge for healthcare providers in Norway. Drugs are prescribed from different sources as the patients GP, private specialists, emergency care, hospitals and doctors in the patient's family. In order to provide healthcare providers that need access to the patient's medication information fast, a project for consent-based access to a core-EHR has been established. All major EHR-system vendors in Norway participate in the project that is funded by national health authorities, Innovation Norway and the municipalities. The core-EHR provides a generic basis that can be used as a pilot for a national patient summary.
