EN 13606 Health informatics - Electronic Health Record Communication Related standards ISO 13606-5:2010 Website www.en13606.org

The **Health informatics - Electronic Health Record Communication (EN 13606)** was the European Standard for an information architecture to communicate patients' [electronic health records](/source/Electronic_health_record) (EHRs). The standard was later adopted as ISO 13606 and later replaced with ISO 13606-2 and recently ISO 13606-5:2010.[1]

This standard was intended to support the interoperability of systems and components that need to communicate (access, transfer, add or modify) EHR data via electronic messages or as distributed objects:

- preserving the original clinical meaning intended by the author;

- reflecting the confidentiality of that data as intended by the author and patient.
