The Consortium is formed by the Ministry of Health as Project Coordinator, the Ministry of Economy and Finance (starting from 1 August 2019), AgID and the Emilia-Romagna, Lombardia and Veneto Regions.
The Ministry of Health took care of the participation in the Call "2015 CEF Telecom - eHealth" in order to identify and test the technical and operational criteria necessary to ensure the interoperability of the electronic prescription (ePrescription /eDispensation or eP/eD) and the Patient Summary at the European level.
Emilia-Romagna, Lombardia and Veneto Regions were identified as they had tested both solutions for interregional interoperability in line with the specifications of the epSOS (Smart Open Services for European Patients) project for the Patient Summary and ePrescription and interoperability with the national infrastructure for the Electronic Health Record prepared by AgID.
