The document discusses Health Level Seven (HL7), an organization established in 1987 that develops standards for clinical and administrative data in healthcare. It outlines the evolution from HL7 version 2, which has limitations like implicit data models and difficulty in linking events to business processes, to HL7 version 3, which adopts a model-based methodology with a focus on shared models and robust communication techniques. The text highlights that HL7 version 3 improves on previous versions by providing a common reference information model and ensuring technology neutrality.

Della Valle – http://emanueledellavalle.org - @manudellavalle Health Level 7 • Founded in 1987, Health Level Seven International is one of several American National Standards Institute (ANSI) - accredited Standards Developing Organizations (SDOs) operating in the healthcare arena. Most SDOs produce standards (sometimes called specifications or protocols) for a particular healthcare domain such as pharmacy, medical devices, imaging or insurance (claims processing) transactions. Health Level Seven's domain is clinical and administrative data. • HL7 develops: • conceptual standards (e.g., HL7 RIM) • document standards (e.g., HL7 CDA) • messaging standards (e.g., HL7 v2.x and v3.0). 3

- 19. E.

- 20. E.

- 22. E.

- 23. E.

Editor's Notes
- #4: In the context of Health informatics, CCOW or Clinical Context Object Workgroup is an HL7 standard protocol designed to enable disparate applications to synchronize in real time, and at the user-interface level. It is vendor independent and allows applications to present information at the desktop and/or portal level in a unified way. CCOW is the primary standard protocol in healthcare to facilitate a process called &quot;Context Management.&quot; Context Management is the process of using particular &quot;subjects&quot; of interest (e.g., user, patient, clinical encounter, charge item, etc.) to &apos;virtually&apos; link disparate applications so that the end-user sees them operate in a unified, cohesive way.
