CEN 13606 EHR communication standard
CEN
- the European committee for standardisation. The European health informatics committee
(otherwise known as CEN/TC 251) is defining and revising a five part EHR communication standard.
- CEN 13606 Part 1 - The Reference model
(a scalable model for representing health information)
- CEN 13606 Part 2 - Archetype interchange specification (an archetype model is used to represent archetypes when communicated between archetype repositories within EHRs). Archetypes define (constrain) legal combinations of the reference model (described in part 1)
- CEN 13606 Part 3 - Reference archetypes and term lists
- CEN 13606 Part 4 - Security (a methodology for specifying the privileges necessary to access the EHR data)
- CEN 13606 Part 5 - Exchange models (still under development but will describe the messaging model to enable the exchange of EHR data)
