FHIR support does not automatically make two applications compatible.
Plan a defined exchange of health information between two applications and test it with synthetic data.
Read the German originalName the specific exchange
HL7 FHIR describes the electronic exchange of health information. Applications may nevertheless support different versions, profiles and resources. A shared use case establishes which parts actually need to work together.
Describe the information needed and the next action in the target system. Synthetic examples are enough for an initial technical assessment. Real patient data is not required to choose the approach.
Check structure and clinical meaning
Successful profile validation checks defined technical rules. It does not automatically confirm that a unit, code or reference is interpreted correctly in its subject context. The responsible specialists must define the expected results.
Examine missing information and conflicting identity references. An uncertain association must not be resolved by assuming a match. The case must remain visible for clarification before data enters the next process.
Validate a limited test exchange
A pilot connects two documented interfaces for a few resource types. Versions and relevant Implementation Guides are recorded. Alongside the normal case, tests cover denied access and an interrupted exchange.
A successful pilot prepares further decisions. Production use also requires clarified requirements for data processing, clinical use and any necessary approvals. This work is planned separately and is not inferred from a successful technical connection test.
