VA Closed-Loop Referrals
Submitting WG/Project/Implementer Group
- U.S. Veterans Health Administration
- Healthcare Services Platform Consortium (HSPC)
Justification
The U.S. Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) organized the 360Exchange (360X) Project to accelerate interoperable health care data exchange in heterogeneous EHRT environments. In particular, the 360X Project seeks to enable providers to exchange the following types of clinical information from within their EHRT workflow, regardless of the EHRT used:
- Referral requests containing relevant patient clinical information
- Result of referral containing relevant patient clinical information
Whereas the 360X Project emphasized C-CDA content and Direct transport infrastructure, this connectathon track focuses on fulfilling these requirements using FHIR resources, REST architecture for transport, and OAuth2 for security.
