The Interoperability category focuses on connecting disparate health information systems, medical devices, and diagnostic hardware to enable seamless clinical data exchange.
Articles in this section examine practical integrations involving medical data standards like HL7, LOINC, SNOMED-CT, RxNorm, and DICOM. Content covers building robust middleware microservices—such as tembo-connect—to intercept and parse raw telemetry from laboratory analyzers and imaging modalities, establishing unified patient data standards across hospitals, and eliminating data silos to power secure, coordinated care across health networks in Africa.
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers defines interoperability as the ability of a software (or hardware) to work with other products or systems and allow for information exchange. In healthcare, this is more than just a technical feature. Instead, it is a vital tool…
