About this study
This project is associating partners from the public area (university hospital of Nice, Nice university) and the private area (Agfa Health Care, Radhuis, Domicalis) to create a unique medico-psycho-social shared record.
The purpose of this project is to significantly improve coordination of care, especially between hospital and home. We can expect a significant improvement in the patient's living conditions, improving its management, its security and ultimately, lower health care costs.
Read the detailed description
The LICORNE project was created to give the possibility for the medical establishments to share there medico-psycho-social informations with all actors taking part of the patient care. Indeed, current informatique systems in medical establishments have an isolated functionning, without transmission of information outsite the wall of the hospital. The idea of this project is to bring together all actors involved in the care of a patient around a single shared patient record, regardless of the structures where professionnals work. This project is associating partners from the public area (university hospital of Nice, Nice university) and the private area (Agfa Health Care, Radhuis, Domicalis) to create a unique medico-psycho-social shared record. The informations will be share between all the professionnal taking car of the patient.
The main objective of this protocol will be to determine the impact of using the LICORNE platform on the coordination of care of elderly patients with multiple diseases. We will assess the impact of using the LICORNE platform on the implementation of electronic health record (Dossier Médical Partagé, public health insurance of the social security), and the benefit of using the LICORNE platform to reduce patient's hospital readmissions.
