When This Skill Applies
Activate when the data product involves: electronic health records (EHR), claims/billing data, clinical terminology, patient-level data, OMOP CDM, FHIR/HL7, or any data governed by HIPAA.
Do NOT activate for: general analytics, marketing data, financial data, or non-clinical datasets.
Core Standards
FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) - Modern API standard for health data exchange. Resource-based (Patient, Observation, MedicationRequest, Condition, Encounter). Use for real-time integrations and patient-facing apps.
HL7 v2 - Legacy messaging standard still dominant in hospital systems. Pipe-delimited segments (MSH, PID, OBX). Expect to encounter this in any EHR integration project.
OMOP CDM (Common Data Model) - Research-optimized schema for observational health data. Core tables: PERSON, VISIT_OCCURRENCE, CONDITION_OCCURRENCE, DRUG_EXPOSURE, MEASUREMENT, OBSERVATION, PROCEDURE_OCCURRENCE. Use for analytics and real-world evidence studies.
Clinical Terminology Systems
| System | What It Codes | Example |
