What is a PHE?

A personal health environment (PHE) is a digital tool in which you can keep track of information about your own health and actively work on your health. The PHE allows you to manage medical data and to also share it with others. This way you keep a grip on your health care data, from treatments to laboratory results, medications and vaccinations. And these data remain accessible throughout your entire life.

MedMij Framework

MedMij’s core task is to facilitate the digital exchange of health data between residents of the Netherlands and their care-givers. MedMij is also creating confidence that this is done in a secure, affordable, future-proof and user-friendly way. One of the ways MedMij is doing this is by designing a solid framework.

Information standards

Health data such as blood pressure, lung function and laboratory results are often saved in the computers of different care givers. To make these data accessible for a personal health environments and to make regular exchange possible, information standards are needed.
