| Abstract: | With the aging population in the Netherlands, the demand for healthcare personnel is increasing each year. The healthcare system cannot keep up with the growing demand. Therefore, the Integral Care Agreement set up several tasks to improve the system, with one key task being electronic health information exchange. This leads to the Electronic Data Sharing in Health Care Act (WEGIZ), which introduces information standards for exchanging health information. One of the information standards derived from the WEGIZ is the information standard Medication Process 9 (MP9) which is still under development. That makes it challenging for startups to integrate this standard due to its uncertainties. The research consists of a structured documentation review and interviews with experts from Nictiz who develop and manage the information standards. The technical and functional requirements of the information standard MP9 are used to find the important factors for startups to prepare for MP9. The research delivers a guide for startup companies to prepare to integrate the medication process information standards into their healthcare information systems and describes the important factors startups need to consider during the process. |
