Custom Medicore integration development
Appfront builds custom integrations between the Medicore EHR and your own application, client portal or administration. Via Medicore's API platform we connect client records, calendar appointments, billing and care communication, so you no longer have to re-type data. You stay in control of privacy-sensitive care data, as we work in line with the GDPR and the Dutch healthcare security standards NEN 7510 and ISO 27001.
What is a Medicore integration?
Medicore is a Dutch EHR for healthcare, with a strong position in mental health care and medical-specialist care. Care providers record client and patient files there, schedule appointments in the calendar, process billing and communicate around treatment. Medicore also offers an API platform through which the system can exchange data with other applications.
A custom Medicore integration means making data from Medicore available in your own environment in a controlled way. Think of a client portal, a reporting or management environment, another care system, or an administrative process. Depending on the interfaces available, this can involve record data, appointment data, billing information, questionnaire or ROM outcomes and documents, in one or both directions.
Because medical and special category personal data are involved, Appfront builds every integration in line with the GDPR and the healthcare standards NEN 7510 and ISO 27001. We align data flows, error handling and logging with your actual care processes and apply data minimisation, so that only strictly necessary data is exchanged and the integration remains reliable and demonstrably secure.
Client record access
Make case file data from Medicore available in your own application or portal, with strict data minimisation. Only the fields you need are exchanged, encrypted, and every request is fully logged.
Synchronised agenda
Keep appointment and agenda data aligned between Medicore and your own system or client portal. Changes remain consistent, so practitioners and clients work from the same schedule without duplicate entry.
Secure & GDPR-compliant
We build every integration involving medical data in line with NEN 7510, ISO 27001 and the GDPR: encrypted connections, strict access control, audit logging and a documented processing register, so you can demonstrably meet your obligations.
Our development process for Medicore integrations
We follow a proven methodology that removes uncertainty early and delivers a stable, secure integration. From an initial analysis of your care process, the available Medicore interfaces and the privacy requirements, through to go-live and ongoing management, every step is designed to give your organisation an integration it can understand and trust.
We map out which data you want to exchange, which systems need to be connected, which Medicore interfaces are available and which privacy and care requirements apply.
We design a secure integration architecture in line with NEN 7510, select the appropriate authentication and encryption, and define an error-handling strategy.
Implementation with automated tests, audit logging and monitoring, with data minimisation as the starting point. You will see working builds along the way.
Controlled go-live with data validation and a safety net, followed by ongoing maintenance, monitoring and further development.
What a Medicore integration delivers in practice
Every Medicore integration is tailored to your care process, the available interfaces and the adjacent systems. Below are the features we most often deliver for care organisations that want to connect Medicore to other applications.
API integration with Medicore
A stable integration with the Medicore API platform, so data flows in a controlled way between the EHR and your own application, portal or administration. With authentication, encryption and clear agreements on which systems may access which data.
Client and patient record data
Making record data from Medicore available to a client portal, reporting environment or other care system. We apply strict data minimisation and exchange only the fields needed for the purpose of the integration, encrypted and with full audit logging.
Calendar & appointments
Synchronise appointment and agenda data between Medicore and your own scheduling, client portal or communication channel. Changes remain consistent, so practitioners and clients work from the same appointments without duplicate entry or re-typing.
Billing (VECOZO)
Make billing and administrative data from Medicore available for your own processes. Healthcare billing typically runs through VECOZO; during the analysis phase we determine which interfaces are available and how billing information can reach your administration securely.
ROM & questionnaires
Make questionnaire and ROM (Routine Outcome Monitoring) outcomes from Medicore available to a client portal, treatment dashboard or reporting environment. This keeps outcome measurements visible within the system your clinicians work in.
Care Communication & Documents
Make documents and care communication surrounding treatment accessible or exchangeable, so that letters, reports and attachments end up in the right place. We set up the flows so that information moves between Medicore and your systems in a traceable and secure way.
Typical applications in healthcare
A Medicore integration looks different for each organisation. Below are some sectors where Medicore is widely used. For each, we look at the specific data flows, privacy requirements and adjacent systems involved.
Mental health institutions
Outpatient and clinical mental health organisations using Medicore for client records, treatment and administration. An integration makes record, appointment or ROM data available to a client portal or management information, with privacy and NEN 7510 as the starting point. See also our API integrations.
Independent treatment centres & clinics
Independent treatment centres (ZBCs) and clinics using Medicore for patient records, scheduling and billing. An integration aligns appointment data and administration with your own systems, so planning and billing run more smoothly without duplicate data entry.
Medical specialists
Medical specialist practices using Medicore for the EHR, scheduling and billing. An integration connects the record to your own applications or a referral and communication process, so specialists work with up-to-date, reliable data without manual retyping.
Allied health practices
Allied health practices and care providers using Medicore for record keeping and administration. An integration makes treatment and appointment data available to your own portal, reporting or a partner organisation, always with data minimisation and appropriate security.
Technology we use
Medicore integrations: we build on the Medicore API platform, combined with the backend stack that suits you. The exact choice depends on the available interfaces and your existing systems, always with encryption, audit logging and the healthcare standards NEN 7510 and ISO 27001 as the baseline, so your organisation can manage the integration.

Security and privacy in Medicore integrations
An integration with an EHR touches on medical and special category personal data, the most sensitive category under the GDPR. Appfront therefore builds with privacy and security as the starting point: data minimisation, encryption in transit and at rest, strict role-based access, audit logging and clear agreements on processor roles. This way, we only exchange the data that is strictly necessary, and every data flow remains traceable.
In healthcare, on top of the GDPR, the standards NEN 7510 and ISO 27001 for information security apply. We configure the integration to align with these, document the data flows for your record of processing activities, and tailor the security measures to your policies. We do not make medical judgements, and we do not store or process data beyond what the integration requires.

Frequently asked questions about Medicore integrations
Answers to the questions we are asked most often about integrations with the Medicore EHR.
A Medicore integration is a technical link between the Medicore EHR and another system, such as your own application, client portal, administration or a data warehouse. Through the Medicore API platform, you exchange data on client records, diary appointments, claims and documents, so information no longer has to be retyped manually. The integration can be simple (reading a single data flow) or extensive (two-way synchronisation with multiple systems).
Medicore is mainly used in mental health care, at independent treatment centres, by medical specialists and in allied health practices. An integration is worthwhile once you want to combine Medicore data with your own application, a client portal, a reporting environment or another healthcare system. Together with you, we assess which data flows add value and how they can be opened up securely and in line with the GDPR.
Depending on your situation and the available API capabilities, this often covers client and patient data from the record, diary and appointment data, claims and administrative information, questionnaire or ROM outcomes, and documents. Together we determine which fields are strictly necessary and apply data minimisation, so that only the data you genuinely need for the purpose of the integration is exchanged.
Claims traffic in healthcare generally runs via VECOZO. In an integration, we can expose billing and administrative data from Medicore and make it available in your own process or administration. Whether a direct VECOZO flow is possible depends on the available interfaces and your connection; we map this out in concrete terms during the analysis phase before we build anything.
A simple integration, such as reading a single data stream, can be up and running relatively quickly. More extensive scenarios involving two-way synchronisation, multiple systems and strict healthcare requirements take longer, partly because care and privacy weigh heavily here. After an intake conversation and an analysis of the available interfaces, we'll give you a realistic estimate.
Yes. Because it involves medical and special category personal data, we build in line with the GDPR and the healthcare security standards NEN 7510 and ISO 27001. That means encrypted connections, strict access control, data minimisation, audit logging and a documented processing register. We agree clearly on processor roles and document the data flows, so you can demonstrably meet your obligations.
Yes. Appfront regularly takes over existing integrations, even if they were originally built by another party. We carry out a review of the data flows, error handling, logging and security, document the current setup and propose improvements. From that point on, we can take care of adjustments, extensions, monitoring and management.
We start with a conversation about your goal: which systems you want to connect, which data is needed and what should happen on the other side. We also work with you, and your Medicore administrators where relevant, to map out which API capabilities and access are available. On that basis, we propose a secure architecture and a clear quote, without you needing to specify everything in detail beforehand.
