Contents

  • Guidance — getting started and domain notes.
  • Conformance — the KDS-wide conformance rules (requirements language, Must Support, handling missing data) are maintained centrally by the Meta module; the module-specific Security and Privacy considerations are part of this guide.
  • Profiles and the further artifact pages — the technical artifacts.
  • Examples — example instances.
  • Dependencies — the ImplementationGuide resource with the dependency table, cross-version analysis and copyright statements.

More FHIR implementation guides can be found in the official FHIR IG Registry (source: FHIR/ig-registry).

This module is part of the MII Core Dataset; the other KDS modules and their dependencies are described at medizininformatik-initiative.de.
