HL7 Interoperability Framework

The HL7 Interoperability Framework is a set of guidelines and standards that help different healthcare systems and devices communicate effectively with each other. It ensures that patient data—like medical records, lab results, and treatment plans—can be shared seamlessly, regardless of the technology used. By promoting standardized messaging and data formats, it allows for better coordination of care, improves patient safety, and enhances healthcare efficiency. Essentially, it aims to make sure that all parts of the healthcare system can understand and utilize each other's information easily and accurately.
