Sharma Chief Executive Officer National Health Authority New Deihi Letter of reference Honourable Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya and Dr. R.S. Sharma, The Republic of Estonia has had great success in digitalizing and automating its medical infrastructure as well as other social services. The same is equally true about the Republic of India. 1 sincerely hope that, going forward, our two nations could share our experiences in this field to further improve both Estonian and Indian medical infrastructures. Specifically, Gennet Laboratories AS has helped to digitalize Estonian medical systems. They have been a long-term partner of the Estonian Ministry of Social Affairs and more specifically of the Estonian healthcare providers. Our cooperation dates back to March of 1996. Gennet Laboratories AS is behind several key medical systems in Estonia, such as ESTER (hospital information system), HEDA (next generation hospital information system) and EVI (central blood product infosystem and database). To this effect, Gennet Laboratories AS is a stable and efficient partner. Surely, they can be of great assistance to the Indian state as they have been to ours. Furthermore, we would be honoured to share the experiences and know-how of Estonia in the field of digitalizing medical infrastructure with the Republic of India going forward. Please contact Deputy Secretary General on Innovation Nele Labi ([email protected]) for any knowledge sharing initiatives.
