Abstract

A lot of healthcare facilities should be concerned with health-checkups, and healthcare data must be exchanged among information systems of these facilities. However, as healthcare data structure is heterogeneous among facilities, even the electronic data transfer of test results to the requester is not easy. The Joint Working Group of JMHTS (Japan Society of Multiphasic Health Testing and Service) and JAHIS (Japanese Association of Healthcare Information Systems Industry) commenced developing standard healthcare data exchange protocol (HDML: Health Data Markup Language) and tools for effective data utilization among healthcare facilities. HDML is SGML/XML-based data description protocol, with considering compatibility with existing standard medical/health information exchange protocols, that specializes in healthcare data exchange. The structure of HDML and the results of the feasibility study with HDML tools are described. HDML can reduce the cost related to data exchange. In addition, HDML is expected to contribute to a preventive medicine such as lifestyle diseases greatly because all data structure is standardized during data exchanging and all healthcare data generated by different medical/health facilities will be easily accumulated and managed as "lifetime healthcare data management system."
