Project
The HL7 New Zealand project to develop the FHIR NZ Base Implementation Guide
Organization
The **New Zealand FHIR Registry** is the home for the HL7® FHIR® artefacts that are most important to an interoperable digital health ecosystem in Aotearoa New Zealand. Software developers can freely share and reuse the FHIR profiles and implementation guides posted here. The registry supports the development of FHIR APIs for national digital services such as the National Health Index (NHI) Health Provider Index (HPI) and National Immunisation Solution (NIS) as well as Hira the national health information platform. The FHIR NZ Base implementation guide is also published here. And all FHIR artefacts endorsed by the [Health Information Standards Organisation (HISO)](https www.health.govt.nz our-work digital-health digital-health-sector-architecture-standards-and-governance health-information-standards-0) will be published in the registry. The registry is hosted on the [Simplifier.net](https simplifier.net ) platform provided by Netherlands company [Firely](https fire.ly ). Learn more about the tool in the [Simplifier documentation library](https docs.fire.ly projects Simplifier index.html). Our registry setup follows the example of the [Canadian FHIR Registry](https simplifier.net organization canadianfhirregistry) and the United Kingdom’s [NHS Digital FHIR Registry](https simplifier.net organization nhsdigital). Developers can use FHIR Shorthand command line tools to create and upload definitions or use the Forge GUI tool. The registry will be integrated with the NZ Health Terminology Service and HISO standards resource centre. The registry is co-governed by [Te Whatu Ora](https www.tewhatuora.govt.nz ) and [HL7 New Zealand](https hl7.org.nz ). We invite everyone’s participation. Email [standards@health.govt.nz](mailto standards@health.govt.nz?subject NZ%20FHIR%20Registry) to request your account (limited to three per organisation initially). The [Sandbox project](https simplifier.net nz-sandbox) is the place to get started. The [Community Content project](https simplifier.net nz-community-content) is then where you can share your work and collaborate with others.
