Knowledge base

Answers, definitions, and patterns for interoperability decisions.

Use the knowledge base to connect standards vocabulary with real implementation choices: mapping, architecture, compliance, testing, and operations.

Standards reference

FHIR resources, HL7 v2 messages, SMART on FHIR, C-CDA, implementation guides, and conformance notes.

FHIR ResourceHL7 segmentImplementationGuide

Mapping patterns

Field-level guidance for moving legacy payloads into FHIR resources while preserving meaning and provenance.

PID to PatientOBX to ObservationPV1 to Encounter

Architecture decisions

Reusable patterns for event routing, API gateways, consent checks, audit trails, and operational monitoring.

Compliance notes

Plain-language notes for privacy, security, consent, minimum necessary access, and implementation risk.

Glossary starter

FHIR Profile

A constraint on a FHIR resource for a specific implementation need.

Value Set

A curated group of codes allowed for a field or clinical concept.

ADT

HL7 v2 admission, discharge, and transfer messages used for patient movement events.

SMART on FHIR

An app authorization pattern using OAuth scopes with FHIR APIs.

Provenance

Metadata that explains where data came from and how it changed.

Knowledge to action

Pair every answer with a workflow or tool.

The knowledge base should never be a static encyclopedia. Each concept should lead users toward a playbook, validator, parser, checklist, or implementation guide.
