The Medical Informatics Initiative Germany
summary
German university hospitals build local Data Integration Centers that extract, annotate (SNOMED, LOINC), transform and expose routine care as a FHIR R4 MII Core Data Set with base modules in production (patients, diagnoses, labs, meds, procedures, encounters) and extension modules under development (genetics, pathology, oncology, ICU, microbiology). Repositories use GitHub + CI/CD, Simplifier and the FHIR Package Registry; capabilityStatements and custom search parameters enable federated queries. A central German Portal for Medical Research Data runs FHIR search for feasibility counts; broad consent is captured in FHIR Consent and anonymization is mandatory.
