Enhancing Health Data Interoperability with Large Language Models: A FHIR Study

Abstract: In this study, we investigated the ability of the LLM to enhance healthcare data interoperability. We leveraged the LLM to convert clinical texts into their corresponding FHIR resources. Our experiments, conducted on 3,671 snippets of clinical text, demonstrated that the LLM not only streamlines the multi-step natural language processing and human calibration processes but also achieves an exceptional accuracy rate of over 90% in exact matches when compared to human annotations.
