Vaccination topic

  • Netherlands has started a project Immunizations. The intention is to use FHIRr4.
  • Roeland recommends to look at the Swiss Implementation Guide. This was originally based on CDA, but since no one uses the CDA, they have agreed to switch to FHIR resources.
  • GP play a minor role in the immunization in the Dutch immunization process.
  • Austria is rolling out Immunizations under ELGA.
  • The CDA standards from Switzerland have been reused as the baselin for Austrian implementation guides.
  • Austria has no intentions to implement FHIR on short term.
  • All citizens are obliged to participate in the immunization program unless they opt out.This includes also the children.


  • IHE Pharmacy needs to reflect whether they should reconsider their goal on vaccination.
  • What we have at this moment is a Immunization FHIR profile, which can be seen as a minimum logical model.
  • We also have a spreadsheet with a comparison of the different implementations in different countries.
  • The intention was to make an IHE profile for the vaccination administration and a query for the patient status.
  • Juergen is in favor of generating a gemini project with sufficient funding.
  • We need to work on a proposal voor a Gemini collaboration request. To be discussed in the next session.

Issue to be discussed:

  • Site or route to be administered. Do we need to add site?
  • Protocol and where to store number of vaccinations. Protocol in the IHE model is a reference. The standard resources is not.
  • How to register that a patient only needs one injection.
  • What value list do we use for status reason?

Any other business

  • The meeting voor vaccination will be moved to the Friday morning at 10:00 on a biweekly basis.
