Open Community

We are an open community of organizations and individuals passionate about improving health and healthcare data sharing.

Open Architecture

We foster an open architecture which is flexible, modular, and enables purpose driven infrastructure.

Open Process

We took the best practices of the open source movement to promote country owned implementations and learn from world class experts to connect the health system.

ARCHITECTURE

Sharing Data to Improve Health Outcomes

The OpenHIE community supports interoperability by creating a reusable architectural framework that introduces a service oriented approach, maximally leverages health information standards, enables flexible implementation by country partners, and supports interchangeability of individual components.
