Greece's hospitals can't talk to each other. I'm fixing that.

Greece has 127 public hospitals. Dozens of incompatible software systems. Zero interoperability between them.

The national health infrastructure exists — ePrescription covers 98% of pharmacies. The MyHealth app works. IDIKA built the highway.

But the hospitals have no on-ramps.

The EU's European Health Data Space regulation requires full interoperability by 2029. Greece currently ranks 26th of 32 European countries in health digitization.

Nobody is building the connection layer. International vendors are too expensive. The companies that built the legacy systems have no incentive to make them talk to each other. And IDIKA is focused on national infrastructure, not going hospital by hospital.

So I'm building it. Lightweight middleware that sits next to existing hospital systems, translates their data into HL7 FHIR, and connects them to the national grid. No rip-and-replace. No disruption.

Three years. 127 hospitals. One missing piece.
