DEVELOPMENT BACKGROUND
The Data Access Framework (DAF) Initiative tries to leverage the HL7 FHIR, C-CDA and existing IHE standards to standardize access to Meaningful Use Stage 2 structured information both within the organization and from external organizations. For data element access, such as medications or problems, DAF created new profiles within FHIR DSTU 2. For document access, DAF uses existing IHE profiles (XCA, MHD v2) to standardize access to documents such as a CCD, History and Physical Note etc.
