Are there any active projects/discussions on documenting mappings between the (slowly) emerging UK Core FHIR profiles and openEHR? If so, I’d like to get involved… @ian.mcnicoll I’m guessing you might have some visibility of anything that is going on in this area.

Thanks, Thomas. As I mentioned I have a bit to catch up on. When I was last looking at openEHR there weren’t really any robust repositories, now there seem to be several. Operational templates were just emerging and now they look to be both available and stable. EhrBase looks like a great product …

[image] richard.kavanagh: EhrBase looks like a great product but I’m not looking to get too involved in the Java side of things. My development skills are predominantly in the C# area. Just FYI, you may have already found these pages, but in case not, see here for products / implementations a…

Nigh on everything that we’re now modelling in Wales will have an eye on UK Core. Adverse reactions, shared meds etc but also moving into stuff in the cancer space, diagnosis etc. We are testing FHIR Bridge now also so a shared mapping repository would be very helpful .

[image] johnmeredith: shared mapping repository would be very helpful A good opportunity to refloat the conversation about an official openEHR mapping language!

So a “little” wiser on the openEHR front now, I think it’s time (for me) to dive in and see if I can bring anyone else along with me… My initial proposal is along the lines of: List out the UK FHIR Profiles, ranked by the most mature (some are very slowly going through a ballot process at the mom…

[image] richard.kavanagh: Haven’t decided where to document all of this, any suggestions welcome Hi Richard, we have a standards space in Confluence that already has a certain amount of FHIR/openEHR content. We can create a new page there - probably the existing ones are not exactly what you…

Thanks @thomas.beale , using Confluence seems like a good call, so I have started to jot down some initial words here https://openehr.atlassian.net/l/c/NmoTcBvM I can have a go at the initial archetype mappings (if only as a means to stimulate someone to correct me) - there may be prior art in this …

[image] richard.kavanagh: I can have a go at the initial archetype mapping I think we may have another step in this process. I’ve been struggling comparing PRSB, Lab Panels, LOINC Panels, openEHR archetypes + templates, etc. To me these are all definitions which have a variety of implement…

It does appear that openEHR Templates (and Archetypes) and FHIR Questionnaires are very much related. Is some minor differences mostly around coding and Template context (openEHR examples I’ve found go for XDS document metadata and FHIR examples tends to follow HL7 v2 ADT Encounters … this may be l…

p.s. Ignore the SDC (IHE/FHIR Structured Data Capture) elements such as { "url": "http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/sdc/StructureDefinition/sdc-questionnaire-observationLinkPeriod", "valueDuration": { …
