New federal funding for CIP.
The Swiss Federal Council has proposed transitional funding for the computerized patient record (CIP) to Parliament to further develop and disseminate this crucial healthcare tool. This funding is expected to take effect at the end of 2024 and provides federal financial aid to communities of reference for each open CIP. The spending limit is 30 million francs, but will depend on the number of open CIPs. Data security remains a priority, with strict standards legally guaranteed. The full revision of the law, planned for the future, will establish responsibilities between the federal and cantonal governments and CIP funding.
CMO CASSA MALATI ONLINE supports and promotes the CIP project, recognizing it as an effective means of containing health care costs.
