Tietoevry Care and NTT DATA collaborate on developing a new Open Health Platform for Catalonia, Spain
Published: 22 October 2025
Tietoevry Care and NTT DATA are joining forces to co-develop the Catalan Open Health Platform, an initiative within Catalonia’s Digital Health Strategy 2024–2030. With a strong focus on open standards and clinician-centered design, Tietoevry Care brings its vision of modular and user-friendly digital healthcare solutions to support the region’s transformation towards a more connected and patient-centric healthcare system.
The Catalan Open Health Platform is a digital healthcare initiative led by the Catalan Health Service (CatSalut), the public entity responsible for healthcare in Catalonia, an autonomous region in northeastern Spain. It represents a transformative effort to unify and modernize the region’s healthcare data systems using open standards, particularly the openEHR standard. The platform will serve as a foundation for integrated healthcare delivery across Catalonia, aiming to unify clinical data from hospitals and enable care providers for better coordination and improved decision-making. This initiative reflects Catalonia’s commitment to building a vendor-neutral, patient-focused health ecosystem that supports innovation and continuous improvement.
“We are excited to introduce our Lifecare clinical applications to Catalonia in collaboration with NTT DATA, contributing to one of Europe’s most forward-looking healthcare transformation initiatives. This collaboration not only supports Catalonia’s strategic goals but also marks a milestone for Tietoevry Care’s expansion into the European healthcare market. With proven clinical tools like Lifecare, Tietoevry is well-positioned to support regions in their efforts to implement user-friendly digital healthcare solutions”, says Ari Järvelä, Managing Director at Tietoevry Care.
“The collaboration with Tietoevry Care marks an important step in our mission to support healthcare ecosystems with scalable, interoperable, and patient-centric solutions. Catalonia’s commitment to open standards and innovation aligns perfectly with our vision for digital health transformation,” says Roque Ruiz, Director of Health and Social Services of Catalonia at NTT DATA. “Our objective is clear: to promote a connected, sustainable, and person-centered healthcare ecosystem that lays the foundation for innovation and integrated care in the future,” Roque Ruiz continues.
