They were put into operation for use by the parents on Monday morning Digital Child Health Booklet and National Vaccination Register for Children and Adolescents.
These are two services that enhance the monitoring of the child’s developmental progress and facilitate the planning of basic pediatric vaccinations. In this way, parents and pediatricians are now able to organize the health care of children more effectively.
The two services were implemented by the Electronic Government of Social Security (IDIKA SA), a supervised body of the Ministry of Digital Government.
The relevant JMC was signed by the co-responsible ministers and published in early April 2022 and the operation of the services was presented a month ago to Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis by the Minister of State and Digital Government Kyriakos Pierrakakis and the Minister of Health Thanos Plevris.
As early as April 11, the pediatricians had started the electronic registration of the children’s data in their digital booklet.
In particular, regarding each service:
Digital Child Health Booklet
With the digitization of the previously paperback Child Health Booklet, the pediatric history is transferred to the Individual Electronic Health Record (EIFY). Thus, the Digital Child Health Booklet now appears as a separate subcategory of EIFY and is accessible to parents through ehealth.gov.grin the section “Pediatric History”.
The Child Health Booklet displays the child’s health data for each age period. Also displayed is the total number of vaccinations registered by the physician in the National Vaccine Registry for Children and Adolescents (both those vaccinations that have already been given and those that have been scheduled by the physician).
National Register of Vaccinations for Children and Adolescents
With the Vaccination Register of Children and Adolescents, Greece acquires for the first time a complete system of organization of basic pediatric vaccinations. The establishment of the Vaccination Register for Children and Adolescents aims at the electronic registration of vaccines for all diseases.
All dosing regimens administered up to adolescence will be registered in the Register, based on the National Vaccination Program for Children and Adolescents and in accordance with the instructions of the National Vaccination Committee.
In this way, parents are given access to the information of the National Vaccination Register of Children and Adolescents regarding the vaccination coverage of their children, who are their insurance dependent members.
