Norwegian Society for Medical Informatics
Late December, 2012 FDH’s General Assembly formally decided to become part of NorHIT (Norsk Helseinformatikk / The Norwegian Society of Medical Informatics) and continue our work in health informatics as a network that is part of the Norwegian Computer Society.

The Norwegian Society for Medical Informatics – Forum for Databehandling i Helsesektoren (FDH) was established in 1972 as a special interest group of The Norwegian Informatics Society – Den Norske Dataforening (DND). Since 1989 FDH has been an independent society with primary interest in medical informatics and an associated status to DND. FDH has a long-established membership in EFMI and IMIA

The society has both individual and institutional members. Most of the individual members are health care workers

NorHIT organizes meetings, seminars and courses to share knowledge and information with the members as well as to promote involvement of medical informatics in the Norwegian health care system.

NorHIT arranges seminars and meetings regularly on topics like EPR, Data Security, Trusted Third Parties, Legal Issues and Healthcare Legislation, Healthcare Politics.
