Introduction to Interoperability, Standards and the Role of the Public Health Domain expert

Published ONC data briefs on a variety of interoperability topics.

These FHIR Fact Sheets are a collaborative effort to help educate and demystify FHIR. These fact sheets summarize the key technical concepts that make up the foundation of FHIR, how it is developed in an open and public process, and why FHIR adoption has become the focus of the health IT standards world.

The interoperability of data, and delivery of a consistent level of data quality, are critical factors in the National Digital Health Strategy – both for quality of immediate care, and for the development of longer-term health strategies. This is the first of a three-part webinar series looking at interoperability and clinical terminologies, with a particular focus on the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR), a key standard for interoperable data in Australia.
