Abstract

Patient summaries grant healthcare providers a concise overview of a patient’s status. This paper showcases to which degree International Patient Summaries (IPS) represented in HL7 FHIR format can be generated using data from the nationwide Austrian Electronic Health Record system ELGA. A solution is presented which enables the automated software-assembled generation of an IPS using the FHIR Mapping Language. The generated document successfully validates against the IPS profiles. Our results show that all required IPS sections can be supplied from ELGA data.
