ContSys ( CEN standard EN13940 ) defines a system of concepts to support continuity of care. The first part focusing on basic concepts was published as a European Norm in 2007. It was prepared by working group 2 of CEN TC251 - Health Informatics. Work to take the standard through ISO and to develop a second part focused on the healthcare process has proven problematic, resulting in the withdrawal of the two ISO work items on 13 January 2011 and a proposed resolution in CEN TC251 to stop the development of part 2 from CEN. A new work item is being developed in ISO Technical Committee 215 - Health Informatics aiming to bring a single concept model for both part 1 and the proposals for part 2.
