title: [Introduction of Kanta services between 2010 and 2014].
abstract: National Kanta Services are at the deployment stage. The use of electronic prescription has become established and will be mandatory in 2017. Public health care organizations send data to the national Patient Data Repository in a large scale, and private health care is carrying out preparations in order to implement and start using the service. As part of Patient Data Repository services, a national Patient Data Management service has been accessible to citizens since 2010 and will be extended in 2015. Patient Data Management service patient summary for health care professionals is in development and will be implemented in 2016-2018. A user interface service My Kanta pages has been accessible to citizens since May 2010. A user interface for health care professionals (Kelain) to access Kanta Services is in development. Social welfare data repository will be developed as part of the national Kanta Services.
