Current and Future Initiatives of EuroRec
2
EuroRec is an independent not-for-profit organisation established in 2003.
Its main mission is to promote - as a federation of national ProRec centres (15 member countries and 7 new applicants) - the use of high quality Electronic Health Record systems (EHRs) in Europe.
It therefore also supports certification by defining quality criteria.

EuroRec 2009 Annual Conference
EuroRec has installed a central repository of validated quality criteria and other relevant materials that can be used to harmonise European quality labelling or certification, product documentation and procurement specification of EHR systems.
EuroRec will not impose any particular certification model or any specific criteria on any member country but will foster, via accredited centres and other channels, the progressive adoption of consistent and comparable approaches to EHR system quality labelling (cf. several models ! and EuroRec seal).
(today: +1500 criteria with translations in 18 languages).

EHR-Implement is collecting, analyzing and comparing broad scale Electronic Health Record implementations in European countries in order to provide best practice and strategic recommendations.In the past political, social and organizational aspects that can jeopardise implementation have been overlooked.

EuroRec 2009 Annual Conference
This project fits with objective 1.6 of the 2nd Call for Proposals for the CIP-ICT PSP program: “Improving certification of e-Health products”
EHR-QTN is a Thematic Network project that prepares the health community across Europe (including also most Eastern European countries) for systematic and comparable quality assurance and certification of Electronic Health Record systems and other e-Health products. It is in the first place a dissemination project.
EuroRec is offering its repository of quality criteria and its tools to facilitate the deployment of such certifications throughout Europe.

- to identify high quality archetypes (detailed clinical models) which will have been developed elsewhere and to make them available to a broader community; including in the repository - in addition to “funtional “criteria - ,criteria related to “content”
- to organize the involvement of clinicians via their official and authoritative associations (cf. ELSA)
- to develop formal methods of validating the design and content of archetypes
- to develop a formal process of verification and certification for archetypes
Validation of detailed clinical models
