New website for the IPS is launched

9 December 2021

During a very engaging JIC openForum on the International Patient Summary (IPS), the new website for the IPS was launched. The website showcases the collaboration between five contributing SDO’s and provides an excellent opportunity to get to know the different standards and specification. In addition, you may find background information and an overview of implementations of the IPS across the globe. As the IPS gains momentum, the website will add further insights and materials to support the global adoption of the IPS and its evolution to include more key health data, worldwide.

The recordings of the JIC openForum are available on the JIC YouTube Channel.”
