We can only menaingfully share data so that it can be used in Clinical Decision Support when we have common data structures. Text will allow viewing of information, but no computing can be meaningfully done upon it. A library of common data structures, known as archetypes, can be found at www.openehr.org/knowledge. Archetypes are structured clinical content specs, defined by clinicians, implemented by techies. Data collected in the sending system according to an agreed archetype spec, and can be utilised and computed upon in a receiving system without transformation - this is what semantic interoperability is all about.
