Brusafe+ is a computer server that uses international standards. It is a kind of innovative safe, accessible to all, that enables electronic and secure sharing of health data. Initially created by health professionals, Abrumet is the non-profit organization behind Brussels Health Network and Brusafe+.

Brusafe + is a safe for exchanging medical data using international standards. Today Belgian e-health only uses the KMEHR standard, but Brusafe + uses
XDS / CDA which precisely makes it possible to make the connection between the Belgian ecosystem and the international via a mapping. Currently, Brusafe + can read and store the following CDA documents:                              1. Referral summary                              2. Journal note                              3. CDA Image                              4. Patient Summary They are also accessible via the metahub (network linking the 4 hubs and the 3 regional safes, containing data from all hospitals and general practitioners): Via Brusafe +, you can also consult the metahub data which is mapped from the KMEHR to the CDA. 5.   Sumehr of general practitioners
