A new collaboration between Health Level Seven® International (HL7®) and the American Medical Association (AMA) will offer technology developers using HL7 data interoperability standards, and guides increased accessibility to AMA-published medical codes and descriptors. The collaboration will work to fully integrate HL7 Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR®) with the AMA’s Current Procedure Terminology (CPT®) code set to advance the organizations’ mutual goal of promoting the efficient exchange of interoperable health information.
The agreement builds on more than a decade of cooperation between AMA and HL7 in support of standardization that drives health data interoperability, opens new opportunities for developers, and promotes innovation in FHIR-based technology that uses CPT for measurement, analysis, and benchmarking of medical services.
