Abstract
Due to the abundance and diversity of document types (both external and internal ones), the process of switching to electronic medical records requires a number of organizational, technical and legislative adjustments. The development of those processes and the current stage of works are described in this article. The first step in selecting documents that will become subject to electronic storage and processing in the first place was a survey in which respondents of nine Regional Project consortiums chose medical records most frequently used in business processes conducted by service providers. Based on the Pareto principle, 20% of medical records used in 80% of medical services provided were identified.
