Vendor neutral interoperability with openEHR and HL7 FHIR
In today’s healthcare landscape, providers often find their data scattered across multiple applications, many of which offer only a limited and fragmented view of patient information due to reliance on legacy data formats. This lack of interoperability is a considerable challenge to achieve efficient and safe patient treatment.
Open health data platforms, such as the Health Intelligence Platform (HIP), aim to bridge this gap by integrating and transforming medical data. By providing a vendor neutral, standardised, and semantically rich representation of patient data, these platforms enable seamless data integration and the development of health applications based on a standardized view of the data.
In this series of articles, we will explore the integration component of HIP – the HIP-Bridge. This component acts as a configurable facade, enabling integration with legacy systems while storing data in open, standardised formats such as openEHR and HL7 FHIR.
