Die Menschen haben Angst, dass die Dinge zu kompliziert werden", erklärt Siegmund Priglinger, Chef der gleichnamigen Beratungsgesellschaft, den mangelnden Erfolg von E-Government gegenüber pressetext.

Als erste Stadtverwaltung in Österreich erreichte der Magistrat Wien die Zertifizierung nach dem internationalen Standard für Informationssicherheit ISO/IEC 27001. "Wir verarbeiten enorme Datenmengen von mehr als 1,7 Millionen BürgerInnen. Dazu gehören Gewerberegister, Melde- und Passdaten, Beihilfen oder Familienurkunden bis hin zu Bauplänen", berichtet Ing. Wolfgang Steiner, Security-Fachbereichsleiter in der Magistratsabteilung 14 für Automatisierte Datenverarbeitung.

In Österreich interagieren bereits rund 50 Prozent der Bevölkerung online mit Behörden und Ämtern."

  • Austria among leaders for e-government - study

    The European Commission has positively assessed the Austrian e-Government in the eGovernment Benchmark 2016, especially in the field of key technologies such as electronic identification (mobile phone signature) or electronic documents, reports the agency APA.

    Austria belongs to the top-performing EU countries in e-Government, together with Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg. Austria was evaluated best in the category, such as user friendliness, cross-border availability and transparency of offered services. To compare, Malta was the only country to offer all public services online. In the online availability of public services, Austria and Portugal followed with 98 percent availability.

  • Austria in E-Government ahead of Germany and Switzerland

    Margarete Schramböck is on the right course. According to a recent study on the e-government situation in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, Austria clearly holds the top position in the e-government country comparison.

    According to the eGovernment Monitor 2018, around three quarters of all Austrians (74 percent) already use eGovernment services (compared to only 67 percent in 2012).

  • Austria works on national ICT strategy

    Austrian infrastructure minister Alois Stoeger confirmed his commitment to a nationwide broadband deployment at a press conference. He said that existing problems in practical implementation had to be identified and solved for an efficient funding of broadband. Johannes Gungl from the regulatory Authority for Broadcasting and Telecommunications (RTR) announced the agency would bring its expertise to bear and help generate solution concepts with the Federal Ministry of Transport, Innovation and Technology (BMVIT).

    The government is also focused on developing a national ICT strategy. The excellence centre Internet Society (KIG), established in 2010, is expected to complete the strategy by mid-2015. Fields of application such as research, e-health, e-government or education will be integrated in the ICT strategy.

    Developed by a global Information Technology (IT) company in cooperation with the Austrian Federal Chancellery, the 'Digital Austria Explorer' is a toolbar that once freely downloaded and installed on a PC, offers a virtual office environment, combining the services of the national eGovernment portals for businesses 'USP.gv.at' and for citizens 'HELP.gv.at'.

  • Austria: eHealth in Penal Administration

    The Federal Data Processing Centre (Bundesrechenzentrum - BRZ) provides customised module solutions for the use of electronic health records in Austrian jails.

    Austria has 28 penal establishments. One of the main tasks of the Austrian penal system is to promote the re-socialisation of prisoners through education and work during the detention, as well as therapy and care.

    The costs of prison healthcare are entirely supported by the Austrian Justice. The introduction of a country-wide electronic health records (EHR) system for inmates is expected to increase the quality of care while significantly cutting costs.

  • Austria: eHealth in progress

    After a long preparation phase, the Electronic Health Record (ELGA - Elektronische Gesundheitsakte, in German) project is now underway, with a company put in charge of its implementation.

    ELGA's first milestone has already been reached with the launch of the 'Gesundheit' public health portal. "In its final form, the health portal will be every Austrian's door to his or her personal EPR", said Dr. Susanne Herbek, the Managing Director of ELGA-GmbH. For the time being, the online portal focuses on the provision of quality-assured and independent health information, such as a medical encyclopaedia or information on patient rights and laboratory procedures.

  • Austria: Master Patient Index system will provide streamlined patient records access

    In September 2010, Austria announced the sign up of a deal with a technology-enabled solutions and services company to develop a Master Patient Index (MPI) system by 2011; the aim of the system is to provide healthcare professionals with access to electronic patient records, wherever they are stored within the Austrian healthcare system. The technology will form an integral part of Austria's Electronic Health Record project (Elektronische Gesundheitsakte - ELGA, in German).

    The MPI is an application that will empower Austria's healthcare professionals to perform a nationwide search for patient records. It is designed to find an individual no matter where their records are stored so that medical staff in different hospitals or departments in locations spread across Austria can access detailed information on a patient in their care.
