Abstract:
Semantic interoperability gaps persist despite standards such as HL7 FHIR, and SNOMED CT. Using a design science approach, our research investigates how a language for the formal specification of semantics can be developed, based on the principles of the ABC4HEDA (Archetype-based Computing for Health Data) model and structured according to the Meta-Object Facility (MOF) standard. The intended contribution is a conceptual basis that may support future work toward more semantically unified medical knowledge graphs. Future work will focus on implementation within the TermX platform to support distributed healthcare data exchange. This paper presents preliminary results from ongoing research. This work is co-funded by the Estonian Research Council through the PRG-2629 grant and by the European Union and the Estonian Research Council under project TEM-TA105.
