Overview of how OpenCRVS uses best-practice technology standards

PreviousPerformance testsNextFHIR Documents

Because OpenCRVS is a core component of Digital Public Infrastructure, we are obsessed with conforming to good, existing standards.

CR Standards:

OpenCRVS are a of the Digital Convergence Initiative, interfaces. We helped author these standards and interoperate with social protection systems such as .

-

OpenCRVS has contributed to and conforms to the G2PConnect using the DCI payloads above.

Data

By using as a standard for our NoSQL datastore, and the standard interoperability layer , OpenCRVS seamlessly connects civil registration to health services and other systems. We can receive birth and death notifications from the hospital setting and expose registration events to any other technical system, such as National ID, via our FHIR standard API gateways.

was created by , a not-for-profit, ANSI-accredited, standards organization dedicated to providing a comprehensive framework and related standards for the exchange, integration, sharing and retrieval of electronic health information that supports clinical practice and the management, delivery and evaluation of health services.

We have extended FHIR's model to include custom codes and extensions that assist the Civil Registration context. To understand more about how and why we use FHIR, click .

Interoperability

Systems can interoperate with OpenCRVS using FHIR or via Webhooks which follow process and standards. Our friends at have demonstrated using these methods.
