2024: A single GIS is being created in Belarus, which will unite all services in the healthcare sector
In Belarus, a single state information system is being created that will unite all services in the healthcare sector. The Minister of Health of Belarus Alexander Khojaev spoke about this and other projects of digital transformation of medicine in the republic in April 2024.
We are working to integrate all existing developments into a single platform. This should happen within two years - 2024-2025, - said the minister. |
According to him, the unified electronic health care system will include services that relate to electronic prescription, electronic pharmacy, electronic document management, etc. The unification of already working software solutions in the field of health care will give its result in early 2025, since the first stage of this work should be completed by the end of 2024, the head of the Belarusian Ministry of Health said. He expressed confidence that the digital transformation of health care will reduce the volume of unnecessary document management, as well as help health workers quickly receive the necessary information about the patient.

- the development of e-health;
- collection, accumulation, storage of information on the state of health of patients;
- protection of information in accordance with the law;
- transfer of medical services to electronic form;

- functioning of the clinical decision support system;
- ensuring interdepartmental information interaction in the manner and on the conditions determined by law;
- providing citizens with access to health services using the patient's personal electronic account.[1]
