openEHR

The future of
digital health
is open

  • Domain professionals – not IT developers – directly define the content and other semantics of implemented solutions.
  • Rapid application development thanks to low-code tools.
  • Interoperability is an automatic outcome of the platform architecture.
  • The platform approach enables a component-oriented healthcare IT economy, for flexible and incremental procurement.

Our vision and mission

The openEHR Foundation vision is of a world in which healthcare routinely benefits from ICT, in particular:

  • life-long, patient-centric EHRs (electronic health records)
  • computable health data that fulfils its key role at the centre of professional health care practice, research and education
  • a trusted balance of privacy for citizens and accountable, appropriate information sharing among caregivers.
