HL7 encompasses the complete life cycle of a standards specification including the development, adoption, market recognition, utilization, and adherence. Please refer to our IP Policy for more information about how members and non-members can use the standards.
This Product Grid includes all Products in an Active or Stable status of their life cycle. Retired standards are available on a separate Grid. These lifecycle statuses are defined as:
- Active: A standard that has been published, is known to be or planned to be in use, and is planned to have future maintenance releases.
- Stable: A standard that may be in use and may generate some feedback and questions, but is not under active review, or expected to be updated in the foreseeable future.
- Retired: A standard that has no current or planned standards development activity within the community; which may no longer be in use, or which should not be considered for use.
