The Mobile Access Gateway (MAG) is an open source initiative to support the integration of your application with the Swiss Electronic Patient Record (EPR). With the implementation of the proposed mHealth specifications, it enables you to connect your application to the Swiss EPR via HL7® FHIR®, the standard for healthcare interoperability.
The Mobile Access Gateway can be deployed as a microservice in your IT infrastructure.
The software is licensed under the business-friendly Apache Software License 2.0 and is based on the IPF and HAPI FHIR projects.

The term "open source" means software that is available under an open source license that distributes the source code and allows anyone using the code under that license to use and modify the code to individual needs. Advantages include transparency through visibility into source code, interoperability through use of open standards, savings through shared development costs within open source projects, and many more.
Become part of this open community! You will benefit from the bundled knowledge and bring healthcare interoperability further.

The Swiss Electronic Patient Record (EPR) is a collection of your personal health documents. With the EPR, you have control over your documents and enable your healthcare professionals to access treatment-relevant information regardless of time and place. You are at the center - also when it comes to exchanging information - and decide for yourself who may view which documents and when.
Take advantage of the opportunity that health information is accessible at any time via a secure internet connection: on a computer or smartphone, at home or on the go.

The digitalization aspect mobile health (mHealth) describes the organizational and technical requirements to be able to use health-related data from (mobile) applications for the EPR. According to the ordinance and thus the law, the EPR providers (communities) must support certain profiles from IHE (Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise) to ensure interoperability. While the IHE FHIR-based mobile profiles are not (yet) part of the regulation, it is still worthwhile to provide a simplified interface for mobile access. The need to be able to reuse healthcare data from mobile devices and applications is growing rapidly.
Connect your application to the Swiss EPD via FHIR. Use the mobile access gateway for this purpose, in which the proposed mHealth specifications of the Swiss EPR have already been implemented.
