The integration of the European standard CEN ISO/TS 82304-2 into the digital asset evaluation framework by the Fundació TIC Salut Social marks a significant advancement in the pursuit of higher quality and reliability in the field of digital health. This new system will allow companies wishing to certify their digital applications or products to obtain a quality seal that guarantees suitable technological and performance standards.
With this incorporation, the Fundació strengthens its Certification Service, facilitating the promotion and use of digital applications within the Catalan Health System. The evaluation extends to different types of digital assets, including both mobile applications and web apps aimed at health-related purposes. The European standard establishes minimum quality requirements that applications must meet, thereby increasing user confidence in these products.
Obtaining this prestigious quality seal is seen as a crucial step toward the technological standardization of health applications in Europe, promoting their recognition in cross-border contexts. In the Catalan framework, this certification will help encourage their integration and use within the public health system, an initiative expected to drive innovation and accessibility in digital health services.
So far, the Fundació TIC Salut Social has evaluated numerous applications, focusing on fundamental aspects such as usability, the technologies used, and user satisfaction. Applications that achieve this certification will begin to be promoted within the Catalan healthcare context in the coming months, thereby strengthening confidence in the use of these digital tools.
Recently, an article in the scientific journal JMIR Publications highlighted the foundation’s initiative in adopting this certification, positioning Catalonia as a model for implementing international standards in digital health. This study, led by experts from the institution, compares previous evaluation frameworks with the new system, emphasizing its effectiveness and alignment with the needs of other health authorities in Europe.
