Kanta Use case:Electronic Health Record• Originally an end archive for patient data

– Kind of a write-only storage– Patient data reading example:

• Patient travels outside his own area to a holiday and suddenly needs medical assistance

– Reading use case for patients• View own medical history through national MyKanta web

page• Future is open, will this be a national electronic medical record or

more like a national patient management system?

Innovation: Allow location-independent usage


Innovation: Use Kanta as the only storage

• Use national Kanta Archive directly– Read all clinical patient data from Kanta in real-time– Store all clinical patient data to Kanta in real-time

• Use private data to complement official structures

All national patient data usable in real-time No need for a local database No need to separately archive patient data Avoid vendor lock-in


Innovation: Quick application development over an abstraction layer• Abstraction layer enables rapid application development

– Focus on user experience and rapid development• No need to study Kanta structures

– Create eHealth microservices without extensive knowledge of Kanta structures


Quick Application Example: Plugin to transfer old patient data to Kanta• Archive your old patient data to Kanta• Plugin for eRA

– Reads locally stored database– Maps local data structures to Kanta structures

• Old documents are permanently archived to Kanta
