PCEHR hits problems

I’ve just heard a disturbing report from the implementation community that some problems have arisen with the specifications for the PCEHR.

I understand that the problems involve a discrepancy between some of the specifications released to the different wave sites, and that an announcement will be made this week.

My information suggests that the problem does not affect the work being done by the national infrastructure partner.

I am in the dark, at the moment, as to the effect this will have on the planned roll-out of the PCEHR on July 1, but I am told that the problems are serious.

I’ll try to keep you updated.
