NDHM FHIR Implementation Guide Released: Advancing Digital Health Record Standards in India

Key Players

Details

National Resource Center for EHR Standards (NRCeS) has released an FHIR Implementation Guide for NDHM (National Digital Health Mission). This document is based on the NDHM Health Data Interchange Specifications 1.0 and defines core structures like patient information. The provided sample XML demonstrates how fundamental personal identifiers—including patient ID, name, age, gender, contact details (phone number), and date of birth—are structured. This establishes a common data model essential for ensuring interoperability when exchanging data between different healthcare facilities or systems. FHIR is an industry standard developed by HL7 and is widely adopted in modern digital health environments. The release of this guide facilitates the unified management and access to medical data across India, significantly contributing to the establishment of a national health information infrastructure.
