Swiss Neuro HSM (SNHR)

Swiss Neuro HSM (SNHR)

Description

The SNHR registry was planned and set up to collect and transmit a standardized minimum data set of Highly Specialized Medicine (HSM) procedures and results in the fields of Neurology, Neurosurgery, and Neuroradiology.

Legal Base

In November 2024 the SFCNS was commissioned by the GDK (Conference of Cantonal Health Directors, ‘Konferenz der kantonalen Gesundheitsdirektorinnen und -direktoren’) to set up and operate the HSM register for the five sub-sections of complex neurology, neurosurgery, and neuroradiology, the Swiss Neuro-HSM Register (SNHR).

The SNHR has now been completed and data can be entered retrospectively as of January 1, 2024. An initial report to the IVHSM bodies will be made in 2025 and will include data for the year 2024.
