The explosive development of the internet in recent years has lead to the production of massive collections of web-based tools and development know-how. Implementing an Intranet solution within a health care environment offers tremendous advantages for internal information management, distribution and collaborative computing. Easy adaptability, scalability and the low development cost allow easy integration into existing health care structures. A key aspect of the UZ Gent Intranet is its transparent interaction with the currently implemented HIS thus providing an open gateway to the future.
