HL7 EHR System Functional Model

HL7 EHR System Functional Model: "The HL7 EHR System Functional Model provides a reference list of over 160 functions that may be present in an Electronic Health Record System (EHR-S). The function list is described from a user perspective with the intent to enable consistent expression of system functionality. This EHR-S Functional Model, through the creation of Functional Profiles, enables a standardized description and common understanding of functions sought or available in a given setting (e.g. intensive care, cardiology, office practice in one country or primary care in another country). The HL7 EHR Interoperability Model establishes an industry consensus view of 'What is EHR Interoperability?' It provides a reference list of characteristics of (and requirements for) interoperable EHR records."
