Press release from: InterComponentWare AG

Malaga, May 10, 2006 – InterComponentWare AG (ICW) presents its concept for the networked future of the European healthcare system at the stand of the Austrian EU Council Presidency at the European eHealth Conference, which will take place in Malaga from May 10 to 12. Besides the health ministers of the 25 Member States, the acceding and the EFTA countries, high-ranking delegations representing the healthcare, information and communication technology industry are invited.

Only companies and institutions that were involved in the introduction of the eCard in Austria are represented at the Council Presidency's stand. The Association of Austrian Social Security Institutions will provide information about the current status of the eCard here, for example. Based on this, ICW demonstrates its solution for the e-prescription and an electronic personal health record.

ICW member of the board Norbert Olsacher: "As one of the first EU countries, Austria has laid the foundation for the efficient networking of all physicians, pharmacies and hospitals with the introduction of the eCard. With the e-prescription and a personal health record, we now have to utilize the eCard infrastructure in order to further increase healthcare quality and drug safety. This way, we will create an e-health system in Austria that will have role model character for the EU."
