About

HL7 Canada Welcome to the Canadian FHIR implementation community forum. The purpose of this forum is to collaborate on areas of FHIR implementation that will advance implementations across Canada, while contributing to the global adoption of FHIR. The objective is to develop pan-Canadian approaches to constraining and extending FHIR. The community has been active since January 2016 and has been growing ever since!

The community has several streams of activity:

Topical workstreams
Monthly community calls to share workstream progress and other FHIR-related news
A general forum to ask questions and share information

The table below provides more details on the workstream activity:

Workstream	Co-Chairs	Objective	Progress to date
Solution Architecture	Igor Sirkovich (OMHLTC) Ken Sinn (Ontario Health Team)	Serve as a forum for all architectural questions about implemention of FHIR based solutions Discuss Canadian URI (incl. mapping to OIDs), profiles and extensions	Currently hosting governance calls for the FHIR Profiling Stream
eReferrals	Tim Berezny (CareDove) Caryn Harris (Orion Health)	Build eReferral use cases Prototype eReferral use cases Select Resources to include in Specifications Write preliminary Specifications for broader use	Assembled stakeholders from across the e-referral spectrum to build a community led e-Referral specification. Published an e-referral implementation guide that has been adopted by various integrations across Ontario: https://simplifier.net/guide/ca-on-ereferral-r4-iguide-v0.11.0/Index/Home/Introduction?version=0.11.0
Community Monthly Calls	Gavin Tong (Gevity Inc.) Yaron Derman (eHealth Ontario)	Share progress within the workstreams within the broader FHIR community Identify and promote FHIR education and implementation activities	Informative updates and discussions about FHIR globally and progress across the workstreams Average 17 participants per call.
Canadian Baseline Profiles & Governance	Sheridan Cook (Accenture) Michael Savage (Sunlife)	Create of a set of national FHIR profiles that can be leveraged by implementers and jurisdictions to promote re-use and interoperability Establish a common baseline / starting point for Canadian FHIR Implementations	Organization of workstream into Profiling and Governance Streams, to allow for ample time to explore different types of issues Total of 78 proposed changes to draft Profiles received from FHIR Community Organization of Profiling Stream into sub-streams based on thematic groupings of FHIR Profiles: Entities, Medications, and Clinical Average 10 participants per call Recordings of the CA FHIR Baseline Calls can be found on the following Youtube playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLm8ff1Z6HoFTzBvcjJg9iRHTrvucbqEEQ

The intial use-cases that are being discussed include the Ocean SMART Launch V1.0, SMART Launch v2.0 and Telus Ocean Integration.

Infoway's Terminology Server: Now fully integrated with HL7 FHIR Ecosystem

We’re excited to share a major milestone for interoperability in Canada! Infoway’s FHIR-capable Terminology Server is now fully integrated with HL7 International’s FHIR tooling ecosystem. This integration streamlines access to Infoway-hosted terminologies, making it easier for standards specialists, vendors, and conformance testers to ensure consistent and accurate terminology use. With this integration, users can now directly access Infoway-hosted code systems and value sets for Implementation Guides (IGs) and validation processes, which ensures consistent, accurate terminology use while reducing effort and errors. Key Benefits: Seamless Access: Canadian terminologies, like SNOMED CT CA, are instantly available in the HL7 tooling ecosystem upon publication. Enhanced Conformance Testing: Testers can validate directly against Infoway-hosted terminologies, simplifying events like the IHE NA Connectathon or Pan-Canadian Projectathon. Efficiency & Accuracy: Automatic updates eliminate delays and manual effort, reducing errors. Getting Started: To configure HL7 tools, you’ll need an ... from Infoway. Supported versions include: HL7 IG Publisher: Version 1.8.1+ HL7 Validator: Version 6.5.0+ For details, refer to ... Read the Full Article: For more details, check out the full announcement .... A Collaborative Effort: This achievement reflects collaboration between Infoway, HL7, and numerous contributors. Special thanks to Elliot Silver, David Otasek, Dougal Fleming, Marc Lang, Grahame Grieve, and Ron Parker. With this integration, Canada joins a select group of countries advancing global digital health standards. Let’s keep building momentum together!
