About HL7 V3
HL7 V3, like V2.x, is a standard for exchanging messages among healthcare information
systems. However, HL7 V3 is not compatible with V2. V3 denes a more fully-specied data
model with less exibility for customization. This presents a tighter standard that is easier to
use, and provides a higher level of formal modeling, complexity, and internal consistency.
HL7 V3 is based on information models, which dene the specications of sets of data that are
specic to one area of interest. There are dierent types of information models, including:
■
Reference Information Model (RIM) – Denes the information content for a domain.
■
Domain Information Model (D-MIM) – Denes a set of class clones, attributes, and
relationships, and is a subset of the RIM. Domains include the following:
Domains under Administrative Management:
■
Accounting and Billing
■
Claims & Reimbursements
■
Patient Administration
■
Personnel Management
■
Scheduling
Domains under Health and Clinical Management:
■
Clinical Document Architecture
■
Medical Records
■
Public Health Reporting
■
Clinical Genomics
■
Specimen Domain
■
Regulated Studies
■
Rened Message Information Model (R-MIM) – Denes message-specic content, and is
a subset of the D-MIM).
