Open Health Tools

June 3, 2008 | The open source collaborative site, Open Health Tools (OHT), continues to add tools for health interoperability, recently adding an academic outreach project that includes a research component, as well as code from the United Kingdom’s National Health Service (NHS) to implement HL7 messaging. Formed two years ago, OHT has gathered support from major health care organizations in the U.K., U.S., Canada, and Australia; top vendors such as IBM, Oracle, and Inpriva; and also standards powerhouse HL7 and the International Health Terminology Standards Development Organisation.
