CIHI Launches Draft Pan-Canadian Health Data Framework and CACDI for Open Review

CIHI wants to hear from you!

We are pleased to announce the launch of the:

• Draft Pan-Canadian Health Data Content Framework Version 1, September 2024
• Draft CACDI Version 1, September 2024, aligned with CA Core+ v0.3.0 and
• Open Review.

Together, these products provide the data foundation for advancing interoperability in Canada. A subset of the Pan-Canadian Health Data Content Framework is the Canadian Core Data for Interoperability (CACDI). The CACDI defines a standardized set of essential health data elements and value sets in the context of a common data architecture. The CACDI works in tandem with the FHIR profiles created by Canada Health Infoway (CA Core+) to facilitate interoperability and data exchange within the Canadian healthcare landscape.

Open Review

These products are undergoing an iterative development process and we continue to invite feedback on these products. The Open Review for the Pan-Canadian Health Data Content Framework’s CACDI and Common Data Architecture is now available. This Open Review runs from October 1 to November 29, 2024.

We thank you in advance for sharing your expertise and knowledge. Visit the Pan-Canadian Health Data Content Framework product page.
