Czechs invite foreign experts for health data sharing system

The Czech Health Ministry will use foreign experts when preparing the national patients' data sharing system, Health Ministry Leos Heger (the conservative TOP 09) told CTK on Thursday. The ministry will also invite Transparency International (TI) experts to supervise the tender, Heger said. Heger said he believed that the system could start operating as of 2014 when the law on health insurance companies was to come into force.
