The European Collaboration for Healthcare Optimisation (ECHO) Data Model Specification corresponds to a technical report documenting the conceptual, logical and physical data models and main requirements and decisions guiding the final design of the ECHO knowledge infrastructure.
This document provides further technical details on the data management of the ECHO project, adding useful hints on how the ECHO Consortium solved main technical and semantic interoperability challenges to enable international health system performance comparison based on the re-use of healthcare administrative data.
