It is a legal requirement that every patient in general health care or in municipal health care receives information before registration in a National Quality Register.
When entering data in a quality register, the healthcare provider shall inform the patient. If it is not possible to provide the information before registration, it should be provided as soon as possible. This situation may arise, for example, in emergency care. In this case, healthcare providers should provide the information to the patient after treatment or upon discharge.
Updated templates from the National Quality Register are now available to support healthcare providers where certain information needs to be entered locally.
