• Thematic network
• To promote use of standards and profiles
for e-Health interoperability and
• To foster their adoptions across EU

Interoperability (one definition)
The ability of two or more
systems or components
to exchange information
and to use the information
that has been exchanged

The need for interoperability
• Quality and efficiency cost
savings
• Sharing and reuse of clinical
data
• Requires Interoperable
systems
• Interoperable data exchange
services
• eEIF - Interoperability
identified by the eHealth
European Interoperability
Framework as a priority.

Background, purpose, outcome
• ntilope a thematic network:
A
• Develop documentation and educational materials
related to existing standards and profiles for eHealth interoperability
mentioned in the eEIF report and:
• Drive adaption and improve the standard development
process

WP6: Communication
WP2: Quality Manual for
IOP Testing
WP7: Project Management
WP1: eHealth Interoperability Framework
Purpose of the Summit
• To agree that
- interoperability is essential for care safety and cost containment
- interoperability of eHealth systems should never be taken as given.
- To achieve interoperability use of appropriate standards and profiles
supported by appropriate testing is needed.
- interoperability testing should be based on a Quality Management System
using testing tools
- the eHealth European Interoperability framework is the first step in
harmonising interoperability efforts over Europe (at country, region or
local level).
• To bring you to the point to
– include in your regulatory framework the concepts of proven and certified
functional quality requirements, to reach national as well as cross border
interoperability
• To partner towards interoperability

Outcome
Common approach for testing and certification through
recommendations for reaching interoperability
Based on:
1. Use cases
2. Quality manual – Quality proces
3. Selected tools
4. Certification and labelling
5. Educational material
6. Input from Regional summits

Summit in Odense
Feedback from the summit in Odense 21 January 2014
Spin offs:
• The Nordic Countries will discuss further collaboration
regarding a Quality Management System for interoperability
testing
• MedCom has decided to implement Antilope Quality
Management System to continuously improve the quality of
existing interoperability testing

Summit in Paris
• The message: the interest of sharing information with other
countries. Antilope contributes to build an effective IOP
platform between regions/countries. Quality label or
certification process, testing tools based on standards and
profiles should be promoted
• Response: Great interest to share experiences and to have
more close relationships between countries for the
improvement of the IOP technical frameworks that are
defined in each countries based on eEIF
