about
Ministry of Health, Israel
Israeli Ministry of Health is not only the national health regulator, but also owns and operates 11 public hospitals.
Chameleon EMR was chosen to be implemented in all 11 of them.
A single EMR in all the hospitals makes it easier to plan information report to the authorities. This made it easier to manage the National Program for Quality Indicators in hospitals.
