Welcome to SHIFT's Wiki.
The SHIFT project (Structured Health InFormation Transmural) aims to make known medical history and allergies/intolerances available to all healthcare actors in Belgium in a standardised, structured, and interoperable way. By using FHIR profiles, a shared FHIR architecture, and integration with CoZo (HUB), the project seeks to take an important step towards high‑quality data exchange both within and beyond the participating hospitals.
The project is carried out by five hospitals (UZ Gent, AZ Jan Palfijn Gent, AZ Maria Middelares, AZ Sint‑Lucas Gent and Heilig Hart Lier), each of which structures its local data according to the BeAllergyIntolerance and BeProblem profiles and externalises it via its own FHIR repository. All hospitals work with the same technical partner (Amaron), enabling the development of a uniform and scalable architecture.
The project was coordinated by Elien De Koker (elien.dekoker@uzgent.be)
