Abstract

Background:

From 2022, the “Outpatient Clinic Report” and the “Telehealth Note” will complement the existing e-Reports in the Austrian Electronic Health Record system ELGA.

Objectives:

The specification of two harmonized implementation guides with standardized structure for all types of outpatient clinics in hospitals on the one hand and for telemonitoring treatments on the other hand.

Methods:

With the participation of expert groups, the contents were harmonized, and a data model was created. Template specifications were modelled in ART-DECOR and approved in the course of an HL7 Austria ballot.

Results:

Two sets of freely selectable building blocks and machine-readable content were created.

Conclusion:

The “Outpatient Clinic Report” and the “Telehealth Note” are currently being implemented. The use of these documents will be evaluated as well as if additional machine-readable content is needed.
