FHIR(Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources、ファイア)は、健康や医療の管理に関する情報を表現するための「リソース」(情報素材)を取りまとめたものです。FHIR にまとめられたリソースは、医療およびその周辺のプロセスに関するシステムの相互運用性の問題を即効的に解決するために、電子的に交換される医療および管理上の粒度の高い概念を表現しています。リソースには、患者、受診・入院、診断レポート、薬剤、プロブレム・病名リストといった保健・医療の基本要素が、その典型的なデータ要素とともに含まれ、より詳細かつより複雑な保健・医療概念のモデルにも対応しています。各リソースのシンプルで無駄のない定義は、徹底した要求事項の収拾、正式な手順を踏んだ分析、そして既存の関連標準規格と幅広くクロスマッピングすることによって実現されています。
現在、FHIRの仕様はHL7投票(コメント用ドラフト2回目)にかけられています。
FHIRは非常に実装にフォーカスした仕様です。実際の運用経験を反映したコメント投票がより重要視されます。可能な限り、コメント内容には実装のコンテクストへの言及を含めて下さい。
FHIR Resource definitions developed by HL7 are derived from the considerable collective experience of the HL7 membership and wide community feedback from the development and application of a spectrum of health care interoperability solutions. However, Resource definitions are generalized to support multiple contexts of use. It is the responsibility of the persons or organizations using these Resources to ensure their use is fit for the particular purpose in which they are used, including validation for clinical and operational use.
平易な英語によるFHIRのライセンス条項は以下の通り:
Note: Why not use a standard open source license? We'd like to use Creative Commons or a license listed here, but none of them actually deliver on the plain English intent above in important ways. We aspire to meet these requirements from the Open Source Initiative, thoughpatents are a problem.
While we resolve the questions around the long term license, the following license, adapted from the OMG (thanks for allowing this), applies:
Subject to all of the terms and conditions below, HL7 hereby grants you a fully-paid up, non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual, worldwide license (without the right to sublicense) to use this specification to create and distribute software and special purpose specifications that are based upon this specification and to use, copy and distribute this specification as provided under the United States Copyright Act; provided that:
This limited permission automatically terminates without notice if you breach any of these terms or conditions. Upon termination, you will destroy immediately any copies of the specifications in your possession or control.

The entire risk as to the quality and performance of software developed using this specification is borne by you. This disclaimer of warranty constitutes an essential part of the license granted to you to use this specification.
HL7 is and shall at all times be the sole entity that may authorize developers, suppliers and sellers of computer software or specifications to use certification marks, trademarks or other special designations to indicate compliance with FHIR. Software developed under the terms of this license may claim compliance or conformance with FHIR if and only if the software compliance is of a nature fully matching the applicable conformance points as stated in the FHIR specification. Software developed only partially matching the applicable compliance points may claim only that the software was based on FHIR, but may not claim compliance or conformance with this specification. In the event that testing suites or processes are implemented or approved by HL7, Inc., software developed using this specification may claim compliance or conformance with the FHIR specification only if the software satisfactorily completes the testing suites.
