Interoperability and Open Standards
Enabling Seamless Data Exchange
Implementing True Interoperability
Standards-Based Development:
- Full implementation of HL7 FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources)
- Support for IHE profiles and gematik specifications
- Adherence to ISiK (Interoperable Systems in Hospitals) framework
Technical Advantages:
- Syntactic and semantic interoperability between all systems
- Standardized APIs promoting easy integration of new systems
- Future-proofing through compliance with emerging standards
- End-to-end data flow without information blocking
Real-World Benefits:
- Seamless exchange of medical data with external partners
- Direct connection to national infrastructure (Telematics Infrastructure)
- Easy integration of medical information objects (MIOs)
- Support for patient data portability across the healthcare system
The KHZG explicitly requires "existing internationally recognized technical, syntactic, and semantic standards to establish continuous interoperability of digital services."
