A world-first program to unite digital health standards in many countries is being launched by the Nordic Interoperability Project (NIP) today at the HimSS22 European Health Conference and Exhibition.
The Nordic Digital Health and Evolution Criteria (NORDDEC) program aims to enable healthcare providers in Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland and Iceland to evaluate and identify reliable digital health technologies within health and preventive care.
This product will also provide guidance to developers and technology owners, so they have clear parameters when planning new products and market access strategies.
Recognition was developed by structure Organization to review care and health apps (orcha) And the project was jointly funded Japani And Nordic Healthtech Industry.
why it matters
Nordic region According to Nordic Council Councils, there are plans to be the most integrated health sector in the world by 2030.
A change towards digital health, and its focus on the self-management of health by the Nordic population, will be an important step on this journey, but it also brings new risk.
Despite 350,000 digital health technologies on the market, Nordic countries have no standardized regulation or risk management system, which are unable to safely find and determine medical professionals.
The objective of the Norddeck program is to solve the issue and lead the world in adopting large -scale health technologies by setting up a common benchmark of norms throughout the region. It is attracted by international best exercises and allows each country to be added above region-wide infrastructure norms and above localized recognition criteria.
Digital health products are tested against more than 500 measures in data and technical safety, clinical assurance and purpose. New criteria such as penetration (PEN) and vulnerability test evidence and further safety and effectiveness will also be required to provide assurance.

Meanwhile, a proposal for European Health Data Location (EHD) Last month was announced by the European Commission. Framework will potentially exploit health data of about 450 million people, facilitating the facility for cross -border care and research between the European Union member states.
On record
NIP CEO, Anders Tunold-Hansen said: “Nordics is home to a lively and growing healthcate industry. This program offers suppliers an attractive platform, providing an attractive platform to reach the entire Nordix Healthcare System, breaking the current obstacles for market access. The next phase will produce a digital library for nordix, with thousands of top-quality apps that can use healthcare professionals safe and confidently. ,
Founder CEO, Oroke, Liz Eshal-Penne said: “It has been a historic project for all the orks and all the countries involved and learning can be rolled out in other geographical areas. It also gives suppliers a good springboard, which easily gives a good springboard to meet other geographies, such as UK, Netherlands, Canada and America, to meet the requirements to enter the US. ,
