Objectives and challenge
Why the Connectathon exists and what participating countries are expected to validate.
The Connectathon promotes technical capability building and knowledge exchange across Latin America and the Caribbean so clinical information can flow securely across borders.
The event provides a controlled collaborative testing environment where countries validate interoperability profiles, standards, and implementation decisions before scaling them into national digital health strategies.
Key points
- Validate continuity-of-care flows using IPS documents.
- Test patient-mediated exchange through QR/VHL and wallet-compatible flows.
- Prepare participating countries for trusted cross-border digital health exchange.
