Abstract

HL7 FHIR is the standard for healthcare information exchange. In November 2022, our medication subgroup developed 8 profiles and 23 extensions for medication procedures in Japan, as part of the JP Core Implementation Guide 1.1. Our work demonstrates the ability of HL7 FHIR to describe Japanese prescription procedures while also addressing the requirements of other countries.
