- Health Level Seven (HL7) is the most popular,
global healthcare standard in use today. Introduced in
1987 by the HL7 International Inc~, the current version 3
has been promoting Semantic Interoperability (SI) which
is two or more computer systems exchanging valued
healthcare information with homogenous understanding.
Thus, efficient implementation for optimal, high-end SI
entails the abridgement of verbose v3 Message paradigm
representations, whilst strictly maintaining their
semantic nuance and flavour. The resulting economised
structures termed Green Messages, have to be truly
universally overarching, affording and facilitating
International Interoperability. Aligned with this core
Greening requirement is the demand for secured,
efficacious exchange of data and information “in the t
wire”, promoting overall efficiency.
This paper outlines conclusive research on all
greening fronts, and underscores sound methodologies to
realize true International Interoperability and superlative
efficiency, as appraised by the ten, archaic System
Performance Indicators (SPIs) used.
Keywords - International Interoperability, Semantic Map,
Semantic Blending.
