Agence eSanté is Luxembourg’s national eHealth competence centre whose main mission is to facilitate the electronic exchange and sharing of medical data between healthcare providers involved in a patient’s medical care. The eSanté services allow a simplified and expeditious use of medical information, and thereby support the improvement of prevention, diagnosis, treatment and medical monitoring. They thus also enhance coordinated medical care as well as a more comprehensive and efficient health system.
One of the core eSanté services facilitating this information sharing is the “Dossier de Soins Partagé” (DSP), a patient’s secure electronic health record allowing authorised healthcare providers, as well as the patient himself, to have access to the latter’s essential health related information.
