CORRECT

1. What is the full form of FHIR?

Full Health Interoperability Resources

Fast Health Interchange Resources

Forward Health Interoperability Resources

 Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources

Fast Health Interoperability Reference

it is “Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources”. See Page-3 of Session 1 reading material.

CORRECT

2. Which is the latest FHIR publication/speci cation?

 Release 4

/
STU 3

DSTU 2

DSTU 1

R5

3. Which of the following statement is correct about FHIR’s Primary focus?

It is built for clinical experts and speci cation attempt to de ne good or best clinical practices

Focus is to create speci cation for domain experts

 The FHIR speci cation is targeted to individuals and organizations developing software and architecting
interoperable solutions that will be using FHIR

FHIR speci cation attempt to de ne good or best clinical practices

Speci cation does provide guidance on user interfaces or work ows

FHIR primary focus is to provide speci cation which can help developers to understand how to
exchange data using standard format. This is achieved by Resources as format and REST API as
primary way of exchange data. See Page-5 of Session 1 reading material and
http://hl7.org/fhir/overview-clinical.html FHIR site page

INCORRECT

4. Which of the following is true for FHIR standard? Select all that apply.

 Strong foundation in Web standards– XML, JSON, HTTP, OAuth, etc.

 Support for RESTful architectures along with other exchange mechanisms like Messages, Documents and
service-oriented architecture

 A human-readable serialization format for ease of use by developers

Reference libraries in various languages to quick start the development process

Less support for terminology

/
“Less support for terminology” is not correct, in fact, FHIR does have strong and robust
mechanism for terminology through ValueSet and CodeSystem resources. See Page-5 of Session
1 reading material and http://hl7.org/fhir/summary.html#2.17.1

CORRECT

5. Which of the following are two main parts of FHIR standard?

 Content model

Interface engine

Communication channel

Interface Security

 APIs- a collection of well-de ned interfaces for interoperating between two applications

“Content model” is simply resources. FHIR provides Resources as standard format to exchange
data and APIs (primarily REST API, though not mandatory) to exchange data. See Page-3 of
Session 1 reading material and http://hl7.org/fhir/overview-arch.html

CORRECT

6. Which of the following statement is not true about FHIR speci cation?

It is divided into 5 modules

Modules are categorized as Module 1 to 5

 Dependencies between the modules are mainly upwards (like module 2 resources might have dependency
on module 3 resources)

Foundation Module provides content on how information will be exchanged in FHIR

Dependencies between the modules are mainly downwards (like module 3 resources might have
dependency on module 3 resources). See Page-12 of Session 1 reading material and
http://hl7.org/fhir/modules.html

CORRECT

7. Which of the following features are common across all resources? select all that apply.

 Common metadata
/
 A URL that identi es the resource

 A human readable summary of the resource content

 Extensibility framework

 Resource speci c de ned data elements

All resources inherits from base Resource and most others also inherits from DomainResource.
So, mostly all resources can have meta, text, extension elements along with their own de ned
elements. See Page-14 of Session 1 reading material and http://hl7.org/fhir/overview-dev.html

CORRECT

8. How anyone can send review comments or suggest changes for any FHIR page?

Using Stack over ow

There is no formal way to suggest any change in FHIR

Email to HL7.org

“Propose a change” link is available on all FHIR Site pages. See Page-15 of Session 1 reading
material

CORRECT

9. Which of the following are correct about FHIR Architectural principles? Select all that apply.

 FHIR works 80/20 rule where focus is on the 20% of requirements that satisfy 80% of the interoperability
needs.

 Using REST APIs, one can achieve scalability of applications

 FHIR resources are lean and suitable for exchange across the network

 FHIR resources are understood by technical experts and non-technical people alike

 FHIR supports Data Fidelity

All of these are part of FHIR Architectural principles. See Page-16-17 of Session 1 reading material
and http://hl7.org/fhir/overview-arch.html#principles /
CORRECT

10. Which of the following is not a categorization for FHIR resources as per FHIR Composition
framework?

Base Resources

Foundation Resources

 Logical Resources

Clinical Resources

Specialized Resources

there is no Logical Resources section. See Page-19 of Session 1 reading material and
http://hl7.org/fhir/overview-arch.html#organizing
