HL7 FHIR

A next generation standards framework created by HL7

FHIR^® is the latest standard developed by HL7 and stands for Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources. It is comprised of logical building blocks called “resources” that are assembled to create solutions that solve real world clinical, infrastructure and administrative issues. FHIR is implementation focused and uses modern web technologies such an HTTP Restful protocol and modern data-exchange formats such as JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) to represent data. It is the ideal choice in a wide variety of settings – mobile phone apps, cloud communications, health record data sharing etc.
