Ajarn Saranath, I wonder if the Thai government supports the EA for health information systems? I’m not sure about the public hospital under the umbrella of the ministry of public health. But from my point, university hospital, each hospital develop their own HIS. Although in the same hospital such as Siriraj hospital. I don’t feel that it has a blueprint for HIS. We have separate EMR for primary care unit and Siriraj hospital, separate program for PACs and laboratory data. It depends on what time and which department created them. Some of them have data sharing at a different level but some of them cannot be connected. I showed this sample (of my hospital) to stated that all stakeholders that we discuss should be involved in the project. However, the most important person to create EA is the board of the hospital or the minister of public health to enforce the systems to have a good EA and interoperability.
