Abstract

The paper presents a current situation of the FHIR Genomics resource and an assessment of FAIR data usage and possible future directions. FHIR Genomics forges a path towards data interoperability. By integrating both the FAIR principles and the FHIR resources, we can achieve a higher standardization across healthcare data collection and a smoother data exchange. By exemplifying on the FHIR Genomics resource, we want to pave the way towards the integration of genomic data into an Obstetrics-Gynecology Information system as a future direction to be able to identify possible disease predisposition in fetus.

Keywords: FAIR; FHIR; Genomics; Interoperability; Next-generation sequencing data.
