The RA Government plans to implement a joint electronic information system in the healthcare sector. The project of the implementation of the latter and confirmation of the events’ timetable is included in the agenda of the government session of 25 October.

According to the project scheme, the system implementation is aimed at creating necessary infrastructure in the sphere of healthcare, which will guarantee that each citizen receives full medical information.

The electronic information collected by new system can be used for different purposes, particularly for receiving detailed information about the patient and providing relevant medical treatment, providing compensation in exchange for medical treatment, for research and analysis, etc.

Any information received about the medical treatment and consultation of the patients is preserved in a joint information repository by a relevant specialist of a medical institution, which will exclude the possibility of paper preservation and archiving of information.

The information entered into the system is individualized, besides that the identification is done by means of electronic identification cards; the information is secret and secure.
Any medical institution functioning in RA may become a participant of the system. The participation is obligatory if the medical institution provides medical treatment and consultation to the population in the scope of state order.

The financing of the participants of the system in the scope of the state order will only be provided on the basis of the information entered in the joint electronic information system by the medical institution.

One of the most important elements of the system will be the ‘electronic receipts’ subsystem aimed at replacing paper receipts. The latter will facilitate the supervision of accuracy and relevance of appointments, as well as advisability, will decrease risks of prescribing wrongful receipts and will reduce time consumption.
