Interoperability Standards in Healthcare Explained: From HL7 to FHIR

The modern healthcare ecosystem depends on the seamless exchange of information between diverse systems, devices, and organizations. From hospitals and laboratories to telehealth apps and wearables, every component generates valuable patient data. Yet, without a common language or structure, that information often remains locked in silos, fragmented and inaccessible when it’s needed most.

Interoperability standards in healthcare solve this problem by defining how systems communicate, interpret, and use health data efficiently and securely. They ensure that every piece of information from lab results to imaging reports flows smoothly across platforms, creating a unified view of the patient and enabling smarter, more coordinated care.
