Full digitization of the Slovak healthcare system, functional hospital information systems, a satisfied patient with available services, efficient and accurately collected data on the basis of which qualified decisions can be made. The need for digital health services has been definitively confirmed by a pandemic. When will the eHealth system connect all actors in healthcare?
