Standards and interoperability sessions
Technical Masterclasses for hands on learning
Standards and interoperability have a dedicated stream in the weekend program (8-9 July), designed for anyone working in and around healthcare tech and infrastructure.
By attending targeted standards and interoperability sessions you can take practical information back to your healthcare organisation:
- Why are standards so important to enable digital change in healthcare?
- Why is FHIR becoming an industry standard?
- Why is interoperability being discussed again?
The stream is facilitated by Kate Ebrill FAIDH, Product and Services Lead, CSIRO, and Co-Industry Chair of #MEDINFO23, and Prof Trish Williams FAIDH, CISCO Chair and Professor of Digital Health Systems, Flinders University.
Saturday 8 July
Time 9:00am – 4:30pm | Room C4.11
Program listing Technical masterclasses for hands-on learning
In this stream you will hear a comprehensive overview of the application of standards, how systems and data can connect through the adoption of standards, and how we can action practical change. Among others, we will hear from national and international approaches to interoperability, the latest advancements in SNOMED terminology, practical insights in FHIR, the importance of driving industry collaboration and connection through IHE, and the use of resulting data for research and decision making.
There will also be a workable case study on population health and Centres of Disease Control to ground our understanding and learning.
Learning outcomes:
- Understand the standards eco-system
- Understand the key standards which support consistent data definition, data access, data sharing, and data use to support interoperability between systems and population health (with a Centre of Disease Control example)
- Practical examples and links to resources to take home for reference.
While standards and interoperability has a dedicated stream in the weekend program, further presentations on this topic will be featured throughout the five days. Registrations are available for one, three and five day passes.
Sunday 9 July
Time 9:00am – 2:30pm | Room C4.11

Day two will see standards and interoperability stream come together with senior leaders in CXIO and International Policy Forum sessions to focus on the significant global initiative – International Patient Summary (IPS). The IPS is an electronic record extract containing essential healthcare information to support ‘unplanned, cross border care’, but not limited to that. We have all been in situation overseas where this happens or potentially happens. Look at the work that has been completed to date, the policy imperatives, ties to citizen centric services and other relevant topics. This day will go from strategic overview into more detailed discussion on the IPS.
Learning outcomes:
- Understand what is meant by IPS and International Patient Access
- Understand what the core components are of the IPS
- Understand the global policy position on the IPS
- Understand what a Core FHIR Implementation Guide and its relationship is to an IPS
- Understand how different countries are progressing with implementing the IPS
- Understand where to go for more resources to get started.
The International Patient Summary (IPS) is a standard for sharing essential health information and supported by global programs for digital health, such as the Global Digital Health Partnership (GDHP). The IPS was also endorsed by the G7 and G20 as key focus for interoperability. The IPS is a Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) document standard and establishes how structured data can be shared worldwide using controlled vocabularies and terminologies such as LOINC and SNOMED CT.
