Establishment and operation of a National Patient Register by Covid-19

This compendium, prepared by the Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government (DPIDG) of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), aims to capture emerging trends in digital responses of UN Member States against the COVID-19 pandemic along with other digital government initiatives and provide a preliminary analysis of their main features. These cases are shared for exchange of information so that Member States can learn from each other and possibly create new partnerships.

The establishment and operation of a National Patient Register by Covid-19 aims to protect the health of the population in view of the great impact of the disease on the general population, the need to record epidemiological data, pharmaceutical privacy and supervisors.
