Abstract
Information and Communication Technology has made great improvement and development in the health domain influencing the organization of healthcare and the e-health information systems. This paper aims to show the experience of health information system re-engineering in the Marche Region. In particular, issues related the health regional registry design has been faced. The health registry is a suitable way to uniquely identify the assisted living in the region. It stands as a qualified source of citizens’ data for the local register offices that can be found in the various health departments and in the hospitals of the region. It also provides the basis structure for the electronic health records under study in the Region. Starting from Europe and national guidelines, health registry characteristics and functionalities have been analysed. The result of this work is a detailed design of the system ready for the implementation phase. During the work we followed a participatory design approach and we considered the most suitable software development methodology such as Rational Unified Process.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
