This document specifies the information architecture required for interoperable communications between systems and services that need or provide EHR data. This document is not intended to specify the internal architecture or database design of such systems.
The subject of the record or record extract to be communicated is an individual person, and the scope of the communication is predominantly with respect to that person's care.
Uses of healthcare records for other purposes such as administration, management, research and epidemiology, which require aggregations of individual people's records, are not the focus of this document but such secondary uses could also find the document useful.Cross References:ISO 13606-2ISO 13606-4ISO TS 14265ISO 13606-1ISO 12967ISO 22600ISO 18308All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
