The digitization of health records and cross-institutional data sharing is a necessary precondition to improve clinical research and patient care. The SMITH project unites several university hospitals and medical faculties in order to provide medical informatics solutions for health data integration and cross-institutional communication. In this paper, we focus on requirements elicitation and management for extracting clinical data from heterogeneous subsystems and data integration based on eHealth standards such as HL7 FHIR and IHE profiles.
