California Directory Services

Description
Directory Services is a critical component of California’s strategy for statewide health information sharing among community HIEs, health systems and enterprise HIEs, and HIE service providers. In August 2016, CAHIE began development of an electronic services registry as part of Directory Services conforming to the emerging RESTful FHIR STU 3 specifications for Organization, Location, and Endpoint resources to support the Patient Unified Lookup System for Emergencies (PULSE) project. This registry will allow PULSE, as well as other qualified systems, to retrieve information about organizations, facilities, their relationships, and the means by which to exchange information with them electronically.
