This paper introduces the concept of the implementation of a FHIR server for bidirectional data exchange with the OMOP-CDM. Leveraging FHIR as a metamodel, the implementation aims to promote a more interconnected and patient-centric healthcare ecosystem. The methodology involves utilizing the Java HAPI FHIR API for server architecture and validating the solution through patient data exchange with a FHIR reference implementation server. This initiative signifies a significant advancement in healthcare data interoperability, promising improved patient care quality and clinical research vigor.

The identification of medications prescribed to patients in routinely collected health records is an important part of the identification of cohorts for surveillance and research. Preparations available for prescription can change frequently and this presents challenges to the maintenance of extensional or "flat lists" of medications, particularly in ongoing studies such as disease surveillance. The NHS publishes a Dictionary of Medicines and Devices weekly, listing almost all the medications available in the UK as an extension to the UK edition of SNOMED CT.

Background: Reaching meaningful interoperability between proprietary health care systems is a ubiquitous task in medical informatics, where communication servers are traditionally used for referring and transforming data from the source to target systems. The Mirth Connect Server, an open-source communication server, offers, in addition to the exchange functionality, functions for simultaneous manipulation of data. The standard Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) has recently become increasingly prevalent in national health care systems.

Background: The increasing demand for personal health record (PHR) systems is driven by individuals' desire to actively manage their health care. However, the limited functionality of current PHR systems has affected users' willingness to adopt them, leading to lower-than-expected usage rates. The HL7 (Health Level Seven) PHR System Functional Model (PHR-S FM) was proposed to address this issue, outlining all possible functionalities in PHR systems.

While Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) clinical terminology server enables quick and easy search and retrieval of coded medical data, it still has some drawbacks. When searching, any typographical errors, variations in word forms, or deviations in word sequence might lead to incorrect search outcomes. For retrieval, queries to the server must strictly follow the FHIR application programming interface format, which requires users to know the syntax and remember the attribute codes they wish to retrieve.
