Building eHealth national strategies - the Romanian experience.
A description of the newest Romanian eHealth project is presented. The SIUI project - Integrated Unique Information System of the National Health Insurance House was tested on three pilot units in 2007 and generalized in 2008, becoming mandatory for all healthcare units in 2009. The implementation process revealed some difficulties and the user acceptance is still low. A couple of supporting measures, including educational programs, are finally discussed.
