The Problem that openEHR Solves

We discuss the challenges faced by traditional software development approaches in the healthcare industry, particularly focusing on electronic health records (EHRs). The video highlights the limitations of monolithic systems, the pitfalls of using multiple applications with a shared database, and the complexity of microservices architectures. We talk about the need for a unified data platform, such as openEHR, to overcome these issues. By offering a common data platform, openEHR enables different healthcare applications to communicate efficiently and maintain a longitudinal health record, ensuring data consistency and reducing the overhead of maintaining multiple interfaces.
