Answer 1

Answer:

B. Data sharing and interoperability

The Nextgen eHospital application is explicitly designed to adhere to global healthcare standards to ensure seamless interoperability and data exchange among healthcare providers. This is achieved through compliance with standards like:

• HL7 (Health Level Seven): A set of international standards for the transfer of clinical and administrative data between software applications.

• SNOMED CT, LOINC, and ICD-10: Standardized clinical terminologies and coding systems that ensure the meaning of health data is consistent across different systems (Semantic Interoperability).

• Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR): A modern standard that is key for integrating the platform with other digital health initiatives, like the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM).
