Healthcare

Healthcare is by far Estonia's largest data consumer — almost half of all X-Road calls. It is driven by the central health-IT centre TEHIK, which bundles the patient record (Digilugu), e-prescription and billing for clinics, pharmacies and the patient portal. Add the Tervisekassa health-insurance fund and 100+ hospitals, practices and labs exchanging treatment, prescription and insurance data in real time.
