Implementation Guide
Validated Healthcare Directory (VhDir) FHIR IG should become the canonical implementation guide for exchanging information about directories. However, VhDir is on an STU2 ballot and has not been officially released.
The promise of VhDir is that it will allow servers to write their endpoint details once, and reuse them on any endpoint directory where they want to be listed.
