The document discusses opening up electronic health records in Sweden through application programming interfaces (APIs). It proposes a 4-step solution: 1) Create a personal API firewall controlled by the patient to approve app access. 2) Connect the firewall to Sweden's national health network. 3) Provide an online developer portal. 4) Promote the APIs to developers. The goal is to fuel healthcare innovation by third-party applications while maintaining patient privacy and control over their own data.
