International Patient Summary (IPS) - Moving from Specification to Implementation
summary
The IPS specification is live and teams move toward real implementations: a GDHP goal targets 10 countries by end of year and 20 countries with 10 in production by end of 2022; work uses HL7 FHIR and CDA IGs, ISO and SNOMED CT GPS terminology, and testing via Inferno and IHE Gazelle connectathons plus mini connect-a-thons. Current engineering work fixes FHIR slicing, publishes an STU update, shifts IG source to FHIR Shorthand, moves IG terminology to the UTG, and resolves medication-list and translation strategy gaps.
