Electronic Recipe - Awareness And Attitudes Of The Bulgarian Population

Abstract

E-health in Bulgaria in recent years is one of the most current topics in health care. An important element of e-health is the introduction of e-prescription. The process has been developed since 2011 with the launch of the "Electronic Prescription" project of the National Health Insurance Fund. The need for the effective introduction and use of the electronic prescription has been unequivocally confirmed with the spread of COVID-19. The purpose of the publication is to study the awareness and attitudes of people in Bulgaria about the use of electronic prescriptions. A survey was conducted among the population in different age groups. The results obtained can be useful in conducting an awareness campaign on the use of e-prescription and assessment of the expectations of users of the service.
