Advancing interoperability between healthcare systems to enhance elder care coordination: Case studies of European developments |
Jacob holds a Master’s degree in Business Administration and Economics from Copenhagen Business School (CBS). He has been involved in national projects in several countries – e.g., testing the Danish Conceptional Model for EHRs, developing National Patient Registers and translating SNOMED CT into local languages.
He has been deeply involved in the conceptual design of the HealthTerm Terminology Platform. Jacob has also for many years been the chair of CHI-Leverandoerforum – a network consisting of the leading Danish healthcare IT-vendors.
Jacob has taken CareCom from scratch to being a leading global vendor of terminology services with customers as IBM Watson Health and the Norwegian Directorate of E-health. A few of Jacobs strengths are the global approach within interoperability and standards as FHIR, as well as pushing new technologies such as natural language processing.
