The goal for the entire healthcare sector is to establish solutions that make it possible to share patient information across actors. The pharmacies' contribution is Eik.
Eik is the new IT solution for pharmacies. Together with the pharmacies' own business solutions, Eik will replace the current pharmacy system FarmaPro. The platform facilitates efficient work processes and interaction between the pharmacies and other players in the health service. Soon, two pharmacy chains will have it on a pilot basis. What can we in the rest of health Norway learn from their experiences with information sharing?
In addition to a status update on Eik, Härter informed about the investigation work the Pharmacy Association is carrying out for the use of the Patient's Drug List in pharmacies.
