Abstract of the contents of the talk
The Government of Karnataka recently launched e-Manas, a web-based platform for integrating services related to mental health care in the state. This is an initiative of the National Health Mission, Government of Karnataka and NIMHANS, Bangalore, and developed in partnership with the E-Health Research Center, IIITB.
This system includes a state-wide registry of mental health establishments and professionals, and basic health records of their patients, and facilitates compliance with the Mental Health Care Act and other legal frameworks.
This platform incorporates features such as consent-based access to patient records across clinics, integration with identity systems and standards-based EHR. It has been designed with a focus on usability, privacy, and interoperability. e-Manas leverages an openEHR-based platform developed in collaboration with HealtheLife Ventures LLP.
In this talk, the speakers will discuss the motivation for the project, the design and development process, key design considerations and features, system architecture, and the approach to standards compliance.
