One Standard. Seamless Healthcare

Since 1987, HL7 International has set healthcare’s global language by creating standards. As its official affiliate, HL7 India brings these trusted standards to solve one of healthcare’s biggest challenges: fragmented, incompatible data. By enabling both syntactic and semantic interoperability, we help hospitals, insurers, startups, and academia turn disconnected systems into connected care.

Why Healthcare Needs HL7

Healthcare data is everywhere in hospitals, labs, pharmacies, insurers, and digital health apps. But without common standards, these systems can’t talk to each other.
