Details

HL7 Europe has opened the review period for four specific HL7 FHIR Implementation Guides (IGs) to ensure that the global FHIR standard can be applied to meet the requirements of the European Health Data Space (EHDS). These IGs define how the standard should be implemented across various data categories. The required elements include those defined in eHealth Network guidelines, models developed by the Xt-EHR Joint Action, and shared assets such as the European Health Insurance Card. All stakeholders are invited to review and comment on these specifications via HL7’s open Jira Platform. This initiative is crucial for establishing interoperability across Europe's healthcare systems, setting a global benchmark that influences international standards development, including those relevant to Japan's digital health infrastructure.
