La interoperabilidad es uno de los t\u00e9rminos m\u00e1s importantes en la actualidad de la Salud Digital. El termino hace referencia a los sistemas de intercambios de informaci\u00f3n y la Comisi\u00f3n Europea lo defini\u00f3 como \u201cla capacidad de los sistemas de tecnolog\u00eda, informaci\u00f3n y comunicaci\u00f3n (TIC), y de los procesos que estas soportan, de intercambiar datos y compartir informaci\u00f3n y conocimiento\u201d. El Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo (BID) destaca cinco puntos clave para lograr la interoperabilidad: Primero es importante establecer un marco de interoperabilidad en los sistemas de salud. El cual debe contener las pol\u00edticas, reglas, normas, est\u00e1ndares y recomendaciones dise\u00f1adas por profesionales en el sector. Fomentar el desarrollo de los sistemas de informaci\u00f3n y su integraci\u00f3n. Esto significa la necesidad de implementar soluciones y herramientas que favorezcan la implementaci\u00f3n de un sistema interoperable. Empoderar al paciente es uno de los objetivos de la interoperabilidad. El paciente debe tener control sobre sus datos y su informaci\u00f3n, y adem\u00e1s contar con las herramientas necesarias para hacerlo. Resolver aspectos legales y regulatorios. La interoperabilidad debe ajustarse a las normas y leyes existentes en donde se aplique. Esto incluye tecnolog\u00edas como la historia cl\u00ednica, la firma digital entre otros. Capacitaci\u00f3n de recursos humanos. Los profesionales deben saber operar el sistema y saber afrontar los desaf\u00edos de la implementaci\u00f3n y sistemas interoperables. De igual forma los pacientes y usuarios deben conocer su utilidad y c\u00f3mo se pueden aprovechar. &#8220;Para garantizar la puesta en producci\u00f3n y la longevidad de los sistemas interoperables, es necesario seleccionar los est\u00e1ndares que se adoptar\u00e1n, as\u00ed como las condiciones para su implementaci\u00f3n&#8221;, explica el BID en el documento Interoperabilidad para principiantes del 2019. Los gobiernos y las organizaciones deben estar listas para la implementaci\u00f3n de estos sistemas. Y su aplicaci\u00f3n debe estar conectada con los objetivos espec\u00edficos de los sistemas de salud. En Latinoam\u00e9rica existen varias experiencias de estrategias de interoperabilidad: El Argentina uno de los proyectos es el Marco Argentino de Interoperabilidad en Salud (MAS), que cuenta con un alcance regional; en Uruguay el Proyecto Salud.uy tiene un alcance nacional y su principal objetivo es la implementaci\u00f3n de la historia cl\u00ednica electr\u00f3nica; en Chile la estrategia Cuenta m\u00e9dica interoperable es un proyecto nacional a nivel p\u00fablico y privado para conectar informaci\u00f3n entre prestadores de servicios.
