Standardizzazione delle informazioni sanitarie

Health information is a fundamental building block of health systems and the production, analysis, dissemination and use of reliable and timely information are preconditions for the successful operation of a health system at all levels. Because health information serves multiple health systems actors, and since data users have different needs and requirements, it is essential that health information is managed in ways that it becomes accessible for multiple actors for multiple purposes. The Swiss Learning Health System (SLHS) will propose and develop national data standards in collaboration with the WHO, suitable to comprehensively describe both the health and functioning of persons and populations and the components of the health system as a foundation for sustainable decision-making in the Swiss health system.
