The quality of the Intego data is entirely dependent on the registration quality of the participating general practitioners. Only the data from practices that register well (at least 80% of diagnoses coded) is used for epidemiological research. All practices with the intention to register well are welcome to join the Intego network. Therefore, Intego aims to guide participating practices as best as possible in quality registration in the electronic medical record. On the one hand, to help practices that have not yet reached the quality threshold to meet the standard, and on the other hand, to help already well-registering practices to register even better and more efficiently.
Therefore, Intego focuses on short instructional videos that quickly and easily show how to best register in your EMR. Additionally, webinars are regularly offered to address and discuss specific challenges in EMR registration.
Moreover, at Intego, we also try to evaluate innovative care interventions by enabling longitudinal follow-up of outcomes. Therefore, general practitioners participating in Intego can also join innovative pilot projects.
