HL7 FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources)
HL7 FHIR is a standard for health interoperability resources where the data is shared among different systems. It was created by Health Level 7 (HL7), a standard system.
Uses of HL7 FHIR:
Interoperability: The main use of HL7 FHIR is to exchange data between systems, allowing communication and sharing easily.
Resource-Based: This combines all the individual data of the patients like personal details, lab reports, and represents as a resource to share.
Modern Technology: It uses JSON data format to exchange and for quick implementation.
Standard Data Formats: HL7 FHIR uses standardized data formats for web-based technologies.
Flexibility: It is designed in a way that is flexible, so that it can be used in different healthcare systems.
HL7 FHIR allows access to data from patient portals from different providers via a single platform. It shares data to provide real-time data. Mobile applications to update patient information. Data analysis is done with various sources to identify the latest trends.
