The Shared Health Record (DMP) is a secure storage space for your health data.

DMP allows you to store and share health documents with the professionals of your choice.

DMP Power Supply

Healthcare professionals and facilities can populate and view their patients’ DMP.

A healthcare professional should include the following in the DMP:

  • Medical biology test report
  • Medical synthesis component performed by the treating physician at least once a year
  • Discharge documents
  • Prescription of health products
  • Operative report
  • Prescription of physical therapy, nursing, pedicuric, speech therapy and speech therapy (screening, rehabilitation, rehabilitation and visual function testing).
