Abstract:
Medical Markup Language (MML) is a standard format for exchange of healthcare data among healthcare providers. Following the last major update (version 3), we developed new modules and discussed the requirements for the next major updates. Subsequently, in 2016 we released MML version 4 and used it to obtain clinical data from healthcare providers for a nationwide electronic health records (EHR) system. In this article we provide an overview of this major update of MML version 4 and discuss its interoperability for clinical data.
