Example from Austria ELGA – Electronic Health File

Background information (In a nutshell) Positive aspects 99.9% of population is covered (2011) by social health insurance Insurance funds do not compete for members (determined by occupation or place of work or residence) Unrestricted access to comprehensive care at all levels (GPs, specialists & hospitals) Benefit payment system e.g. 24- hour care for elderly people in need (reaction to demographic change) More than 90% of Austrians think that the system is “very good” or “good” (Eurobarometer) Room for improvement Coexistence of federal state and self-governing stakeholders => fragmentation of responsibilities and inadequate coordination* Unrestricted access – makes it more difficult for patients to find the care most appropriate to their condition, illness profile and personal requirements within the maze of options Inpatient sector is over-represented => better coordination needed Spending on preventive medicine is very low (2%) – “Key weakness” The costs of HCS are high Out-of-pocket payments are frequent Efficiency is low due to* Source of information: e.g. Hofmarcher M, Quentin W. Austria: Health system review. Health Systems in Transition. 2013; 15(7):1-192.
