The Clinical Document Architecture Release 2.0 (CDA R2) addresses universal requirements for exchange and management of structured clinical documents. The approach described in this document, greenCDA, maintains the full utility of the CDA R2 while defining a method of working with an implementation-specific XML (Extensible Markup Language) that is easier to implement.
The approach we describe here simplifies instance creation while it asserts as a primary principle that any simplification must also define a method to deliver valid, normative CDA.
We call this approach “greenCDA” because it is good for the environment!
