6. EHR Tutorials

  • About the Q-REC EHR tutorials
  • The EHR Tutorials will aim to reach all those who should be made aware of the benefits of European quality labelling and certification services for Electronic Health Record (EHR) system products and who can or are likely to influence the uptake of such new services.

    Such interest groups or stakeholders will include:

    • industry/vendors;
    • purchasers and policy makers (healthcare providers and authorities, hospitals);
    • end users (physicians and other health professionals, patients/citizens).

    The central message of the Tutorials will be about the quality labelling and certification of EHR system products as meeting a set of prescribed criteria for functionality, interoperability and security or other standards based criteria. The aim will be to communicate to the different stakeholders an appreciation of what this process involves and enable them to learn of the potential impact of this and of the potential benefits to them.

    The Tutorials are structured on the basis of 4 Modules.

    1. The Development and Rationale for EHR Certification
      Is aimed at all stakeholders.
    2. About Electronic Health Records (EHRs)
      Is expected to have different levels of learning interest amongst the various stakeholders.
    3. Certification of EHRs
      Is also likely to have different levels of learning interest depending on who is the stakeholder.
      This module contains information on key learning points for different stakeholder groups about what quality labelling and certification of EHRs could mean for them.
    4. European EHR Certification Initiative - The Q-REC project
      Contains a range of learning information about the work of Q-REC, its objectives and expected outcomes. The material can be ’tailored’ for presentation to different levels of learning interest.
