openEHR and FHIR: Building Interoperable Healthcare Systems in Europe

Why Healthcare Interoperability in Europe Needs a New Approach
Understand the limitations of legacy HL7 systems and proprietary clinical data models, and why European healthcare organizations need more consistent ways to exchange and interpret patient information.

openEHR and FHIR: How They Work Together
Explore how openEHR supports structured, longitudinal clinical records while FHIR enables standardized data exchange through APIs. Learn why combining both standards can address interoperability challenges that neither solves independently.

Practical Approaches to openEHR and FHIR Integration
Discover three integration patterns, including FHIR façades over openEHR repositories, FHIR-based systems with openEHR enrichment, and federated architectures for distributed healthcare data.

Preparing for European Health Data Space (EHDS) Requirements
Understand the implications of EHDS for EHR vendors and healthcare organizations, including cross-border data exchange, semantic interoperability, and the technical preparations needed for regulatory alignment.

Building AI-Ready Healthcare Data Infrastructure
Learn how structured clinical information, consistent terminology, and data provenance can support healthcare analytics, clinical decision support, and AI integration across health systems.
