Background:

HL7 Austria is a non-profit association dedicated to improving electronic data communication and interoperability in healthcare using the HL7 international standards.

Objectives:

We aim to provide an open infrastructure to develop, manage, and maintain HL7 FHIR implementation guides.

Methods:

We utilize state-of-the-art open-source tooling developed by the FHIR community to support continuous integration.

Results:

The implementation guides can be published as static HTML websites and maintained using GitHub.

Conclusion:

The solution supports all steps of a standard’s lifecycle, from drafting and reviewing to balloting, publishing, and maintenance.
