In the last few years, electronic healthcare has become a phenomenon that is being widely discussed by both patients and physicians. The Electronic Health Book(EHB) system, a unique Czech solution for eHealth, is developing dynamically in the Czech Republic. EHB is a highly secure overview of a patient’s health and medical information in electronic form, accessible 24 h a day via the Internet. At the same time, it is a safe environment interconnecting healthcare service providers, patients, and health insurance companies.

Objectives:
The data interchange in the Czech healthcare environment is mostly based on national standards. This paper describes a utilization of international standards and nomenclatures for building a pilot semantic interoperability platform (SIP) that would serve to exchange information among electronic health record systems (EHR-Ss) in Czech healthcare. The work was performed by the national research project of the “Information Society” program.
