Selection criteria Do they actually have an active role in quality assurance of EHR systems, if any in the country? Did they manifest a particular knowledge of the domain (certification / quality labelling) in the past? Is their approval or at least their cooperation essential in order to introduce successfully certification and quality labelling of EHR systems? Is there a risk of obstruction not including them in the process of certification and quality labelling? Are they representative or an important party in the particular EHR market, addressing a specified group of users? May 12, 2011European EHR Market Analysis - WoHIT Budapest 26

Role of Stakeholders (also regarding EHR and EHR Certification) May 12, 2011European EHR Market Analysis - WoHIT Budapest 30
Market Fragmentation… Not only a problem of the market Internationally operating trusts ▫ Not per definition leading to product consolidation… even differentiating the same product in different countries. ▫ More interested (actually) in Market presence Making use of the outcome of EHR systems: clinical content More consolidation within one area (country / region) between the domains than cross-border consolidation within the same domain.

And now? Maintenance is an important issue Maintenance requires resources Involve the market to maintain the database Use the database to promote quality labelling and certification Make the data available to the market (restricted) May 12, 2011European EHR Market Analysis - WoHIT Budapest 32
