📋 Tender Overview
The project Digitization of the system of recording, storing and using data in long-term care and social care - DIGIDO - is just around the corner. The necessary public funds are provided.
The purpose of the investment is substantive support for the digitization of long-term care and social care in Slovenia. The establishment of substantive foundations that will enable the development of information solutions are also one of the key conditions for the implementation of the new Long-Term Care Act (ZDOsk-1).
A special emphasis of the investment will be substantive support in the development of the information system for entry points at social work centers within the framework of the unified information system. In Slovenia, the providers of long-term care and social care services have different information systems that are not properly connected or coordinated with each other. The core purpose of the investment is therefore to provide substantive support in the upgrading of these information systems so that they can be connected into a single information system. In addition, the investment will help to upgrade information systems for efficient recording, storage, use and exchange of data at providers of long-term care and social care services, and will contribute to the development of tools for working directly with people.
With the investment, the Ministry for a Solidarity Future will first offer substantive support for the establishment of the initial information system for long-term care entry points, make an assessment of the current state of digitization of long-term care and social care providers, establish the foundations for the development of a unified information system and prepare guidelines for it.
The investment will also support the upgrade of contractors' information systems by preparing guidelines for integration into a unified information system and coordinate the development of new prototype solutions for contractors.
An important systemic part of the project is also the establishment of a data and analytical system for long-term care at the investor - the Institute of the Republic of Slovenia for Social Welfare (IRSSV).
The Minister for a Solidarity Future, Simon Maljevac, emphasizes that the main value of the project of accelerated digitization of long-term care remains the resulting efficiency and general accessibility of services: "I am happy that this new system is taking a clear shape in life and implementation, so that it will best serve users and service users and employees at entry points."
The period of implementation of the investment activity is from April 1, 2024 to October 31, 2028. The total amount of public funds, budgetary and cohesion, intended for the digitization program will amount to a good 2.1 million euros.
