The Electronic Health Record Sharing System (eHRSS) has been showcased in major local health exposition for the second year. It has also been promoted in various stakeholder engagement activities over the past few months.

 
Gerontech and Innovation Expo cum Summit 2018

Following the success in 2017, eHRSS was once again featured at the Gerontech and Innovation Expo cum Summit (GIES) held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre from 22 to 25 November 2018. The event was co-hosted by the HKSAR Government and the Hong Kong Council of Social Service, and co-organised by the Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks.

This time, the Electronic Health Record (eHR) Office joined hands with the Department of Health (DH) in hosting an exhibition booth to promote eHRSS and selected elderly programmes/ services of DH such as the Elderly Health Care Voucher Scheme and the Vaccination Subsidy Scheme.

Visitors to the booth were introduced to eHRSS and its latest developments, as well as the technological applications deployed to facilitate the implementation of various public-private and primary healthcare programmes. The multimedia exhibits and interactive displays at the booth, such as touch screen information panels, electronic book displays and interactive 3D game, had successfully attracted a wide range of visitors. Registration counters were also set up to carry out on-site registration for the public, with about 550 people registered to join eHRSS during the event.
