Abstract:
GPs in Denmark have a unique civil registration system with personal ID-numbers, a patient list system and a gatekeeper function. A piece of software (Data Capture) has been developed to automatically collect and send prescriptions, lab tests, expense items and diagnosis information from the physician's patient files to the Danish General Practice Database (DAMD). Furthermore, project-related information can be captured by a pop up screen. Data about the GPs' own quality in the field of patient care are sent back to the GP. Many research projects are currently being initiated on the basis of DAMD data.
