Security Guidelines for Healthcare Data Exchange (FHIR-Based)

Sécurité - Terminologies de Santé v1.2.0

August 6, 2025ANS

Summary

This document presents security recommendations for handling medical data within systems built on the FHIR standard. It emphasizes that when dealing with highly sensitive personal and medical data, risk analysis and implementation of appropriate safety measures are required.

Details

This Implementation Guide (v1.2.0) is based on the HL7 FHIR R4 standard and addresses the 'Security' aspect within a system. The document stresses that the data transmitted contains sensitive personal information and medical records, requiring strict protection. Specific security measures must be implemented by the responsible party of the target system, based on its own risk analysis. ANS publishes security references providing recommendations on this subject. This guide was generated using FHIR 4.0.1 and demonstrates version control. It serves as an important guideline for standardizing data exchange and ensuring safety in healthcare information systems. (Note: The page itself is part of an 'Implementation Guide' and provides general recommendations regarding security, rather than specific technical specification changes.)
