Exchanging Patient Summaries
There are two implementation patterns currently defined for exchanging Canadian Patient Summaries.
- Option 1 - Document Repository/Registry Pattern Using MHD Profile
- Option 2 - FHIR Health Information Exchange (HIE) Pattern Using CA:FeX
The transactions patterns presented above represent initial options to the patient summary use case; and are expected to evolve as we hear from the implementer community, and use cases are refined and added. We encourage the community to provide feedback on these emerging specifications.
