A telematic based system for antenatal care has been developed to be used in service integration between primary and secondary health care units. The system is based on low cost platforms and has a user friendly human computer interface. This system will provide better integration and coordination between the health care providers involved, improving the quality of the services. This experiment is being funded in the framework of the EC.Project-A 2007-EPIC. Quality indicators, agreed in the "European concensus conference of quality indicators for perinatal care", organized in conjunction with OBSQID project (AIM.2125) were integrated in the system. Data collection has started and the outcome will be used to validate the indicators on a transeuropean basis under the framework of the OBSQID Project.
