Authored by Ardon Toonstra of Furore, the guide was presented at FHIR Dev Days 2017 in Amsterdam. It delves into the fundamental concepts of IGs, defining their purpose, content, intended audience, and various types and scopes. The presentation elaborates on what constitutes an FHIR IG, explaining that it's a set of rules governing the utilization of FHIR resources to address specific problems, accompanied by supporting documentation. The content of an IG can include use cases, actors, interactions, data definitions, and concrete examples. It primarily targets developers, offering guidance on language, examples, and testing tools or validation processes. The document also touches upon the formats in which IGs can be presented, such as documents (PDFs) and webpages (wikis), and introduces FHIRPath as a relevant technology. The presentation is structured into several parts, including an introduction to profiling tools, FHIRPath, profiling guidelines, and governance, and concludes with what's next for FHIR for Specifiers, emphasizing implementation guide authoring and the tooling involved.",{"@graph":63,"@context":118},[64,80,101],{"@type":65,"itemListElement":66},"BreadcrumbList",[67,71,74,77],{"item":68,"name":69,"@type":70,"position":9},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":72,"name":10,"@type":70,"position":73},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/",2,{"item":75,"name":51,"@type":70,"position":76},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/general/",3,{"item":78,"name":59,"@type":70,"position":79},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/implementation-guide-authoring/241232/",4,{"url":78,"name":59,"@type":81,"image":82,"author":87,"headline":59,"publisher":90,"fileFormat":93,"inLanguage":57,"description":61,"dateModified":94,"datePublished":95,"encodingFormat":93,"isAccessibleForFree":96,"interactionStatistic":97},"DigitalDocument",{"url":83,"@type":84,"width":85,"height":86},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/implementation-guide-authoring/241232.png","ImageObject",442,249,{"name":88,"@type":89},"Arica Lee","Person",{"url":68,"name":91,"@type":92},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-09-23","2026-09-12",true,{"@type":98,"interactionType":99,"userInteractionCount":73},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":100},"ViewAction",{"@type":102,"mainEntity":103},"FAQPage",[104,110,114],{"name":105,"@type":106,"acceptedAnswer":107},"What is an FHIR Implementation Guide (IG)?","Question",{"text":108,"@type":109},"An FHIR IG is a set of rules specifying how FHIR resources should be used to solve a particular problem, along with documentation to support and clarify this usage.
