The IHE World Summit will be held in parallel to eHealth Week on 7 and 8 June 2016 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
IHE brings together healthcare IT system users and developers to address interoperability issues that impact clinical care. The work involves identifying real-world scenarios/use cases, writing and reviewing specifications, implementing in products, monitoring vendor testing, etc. We invite you to become involved in one or more of these activities.
IHE (Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise) is an initiative by healthcare professionals and industry to improve the way computer systems in healthcare share information.
IHE promotes the coordinated use of established standards such as DICOM and HL7 to address specific clinical needs in support of optimal patient care.
Systems developed in accordance with IHE communicate with one another better, are easier to implement, and enable care providers to use information more effectively.
