The digital child health record comes later. It should start in October 2026. Now it starts 1 year later. A newspaper reports this.
The parliament decides this on Tuesday. The health office says nothing yet. There were delays before. The project is hard to build.
Maybe the fax machine is a problem. Doctors send data by fax until June 2027. This data is not safe. It needs better coding. This is a problem for the digital record.
In 2026 there is a test. This test happens only in Carinthia. Other states keep the paper book. The Green party is very angry about the delay.
