The IHE IT-Infrastructure committee continues to produce new and improved specifications for HIE interoperability. Document Sharing Across Network Topologies- Rev. It is intended to be read by HIE and Healthcare IT Executives and Architects, Standards Development Architects, and health data exchange stakeholders in academia.

I think the most useful value-add that an HIE can add is an API that is based on FHIR. This is true of an XDS based HIE, Regional Exchange (XCA), Vendor based EHR, nationwide Exchange, and Direct HISP. At an HIE level: Initially I would focus on enabling Apps to query for and read the data available in the HIE.

This article is where I muse about getting to that beautiful future based on #FHIR. Break Everything One possibly that some advocate is turn off what we have today, and everyone and everything switch to using http RESTful FHIR. This pair of transports now has a third FHIR mode, so Karen's Cross is now three dimensional.

Does that mean we don't move to nationwide http RESTful FHIR? I expect, as I have said before, that the green-fields will/should use http RESTful FHIR. I expect, as I have said before, that the green-fields will/should use http RESTful FHIR. The use of http RESTful FHIR at the edges or point-to-point make good sense.

How does one put a FHIR Document into XDS? How does one find a FHIR Document in XDS? XDS, more broadly the whole Document Sharing family, including XDS , XCA , XDR , XDM , and MHD. Initially Document Sharing was about 'historic' documents. Thus the Document is "Shared". Let me explain.

Today on the FHIR Consent call we had a very useful discussion of how one would use FHIR Consent to do the same thing that BPPC does in XDS. Said another way, what is the degenerate form of FHIR Consent that is equal-to the functionality of BPPC, and what is the degenerate form of FHIR Consent that is compatible with BPPC.

The IHE-MHDS does not define a Document Repository Actor but does include architecture support for distributed FHIR Servers and thus the concept of a Document Repository is included in MHDS. For example: XCA also does not make a distinction between a Document Registry or Document Repository, having a Responding Gateway Actor.

Mostly they keep trying because the most basic query is just asking for all documents available for a given Patient. These are useful, just not very primary for a general purpose Document Consumer. Where these classifications are useful to a Document Consumer. Thus one can ask for documents covering treatment prior to 1998.

This is a new FHIR specification that expresses what a International Patient Summary (IPS) would look like. This is a FHIR-Document, much like a CDA Document, but using FHIR fundamentals rather than the HL7 v3 model that is the basis of CDA. I think this approach to the question is missing a key point.

The Mobile Health Documents (MHD) profile was born to provide a more simple API to an XDS environment. This happened to be the same timeframe that Grahame was fanning the FHIR flames.

There is renewed discussion, much like back in January, around the need to go beyond testing just the FHIR Resource 'interoperability'. I think the HL7 "Implementation Guide" could be this, but I am thinking something much higher than is normally documented by HL7. This is more than just a selection of FHIR Resources.

The recommendation I give here is restricted to the gross level: for Document Sharing at the XDS/XCA/DocumentReference metadata level; for FHIR REST at the returned Bundle.meta.security level, but not on each Resource in the Bundle; and for CDA at the CDA header, but not on each element. for "_confidentiality".
