Introduction

What is iCure for EHR Lite ?​

iCure is a trustable service ensuring the privacy of your patient medical data thanks to end-to-end encryption, meaning your users are the only ones who decide who can access their data.

iCure acts as a complete backend for your EHR solution and provides you with a very flexible data model that provides a high level of customisation while guaranteeing that interoperability in standard formats like FHIR will be straightforward.

iCure helps you manage the encrypted data by providing a series of easy-to-use tools :

  • The iCure API allows you to save your data into the databases and manage the access control to it based on the access rules you defined in your app.
  • The iCure Cockpit Web Portal allows you to create your solutions, your databases and your admin users in your iCure environment.
  • The iCure Client SDKs takes care of the end-to-end encryption / decryption of your data and proposes you a series of easy-to-use medical-oriented services.
  • The Interoperability components helps you to connect with external services by mapping the iCure Data Model to standard models like FHIR.
