Foundations

The first part of the Reference Architecture for Interoperability is primarily about document-orientated interfaces to Regional CDRs, centring on interim standard HISO 10040. It sets requirements for certain utility services around R-CDRs and overall defines our chosen foundations for interoperability.

Connected care

Building on the above, we have finalised a second part of this reference architecture, applying our overarching rules on interoperability to the particular domain of electronic referral, transfer of care and connected care, generally.
