About Felleskatalogen
The mission of Felleskatalogen (The Norwegian Pharmaceutical Product Compendium) is to provide healthcare personnel with structured, updated and easily available information about pharmaceutical products on the Norwegian market. The company was established in 1958 and has since become the number one information source for all groups of healthcare personnel in Norway.
Felleskatalogen has for many years also provided structured electronic package leaflets for all pharmaceutical products on the Norwegian market. We are currently participating in an information campaign to facilitate the transition to electronic package leaflets.
Gravitate Health and Nordic FHIR ePI
Building on our experience with content structuring and our role as the document repository for electronic package leaflets, we are participating in a cross-border cooperation of the Nordic pharmaceutical product compendia to provide the testing scenarios of Gravitate Health with updated, quality controlled, electronic package leaflets (ePIL) in the Nordic languages.
The Norwegian package leaflets are converted from our proprietary XML structure to the HL7 FHIR format. Our goal is to be compatible with the EMA ePI implementation guide, and conform to the HL7 Vulcan Accelerator's global Electronic Medicinal Product Information (ePI) FHIR Implementation Guide.
Data exchange using HL7 FHIR
To be able to fulfill our mission to provide healthcare personnel with pharmaceutical product information, we are dependent on being an active hub of electronic data exchange, with both private and governmental partners. As a provider of structured data, we have recently launched Felleskatalogen's first FHIR API, and we assume that our use of FHIR will continue to increase, both as consumers and providers of data.
