Starting on 1 January 2011 patients will be able to schedule doctors' appointments online; moreover, all paper referrals, prescriptions and test results will be replaced by electronic forms.
In the beginning only primary care will be linked to an integral information system; the rest of the operations of all healthcare institutions are expected to be completed within the next year [2011].
So far 10 counties of the Republic of Croatia are participating in the project with the remaining ones expected to join by 15 October 2011.
