Introduction
The Proposed pan-Canadian Interoperable Reference Architecture is intended as a conversation starter on the broader interoperability landscape, not limited to patient summaries. Its purpose is to facilitate multi-stakeholder dialogue, collaboration and convergence towards common standards.
It is a conceptual blueprint that provides a common vocabulary and a set of abstracted actors and transactions representing typical components in a digital health ecosystem (public and private sector solutions). It is composed of building blocks based on international standards.
