Exploring the Signifi cance of Syntactic and Semantic Interoperability in Healthcare: An Interpretive Literature Review
Abstract
and interpretation. Syntactic interoperability ensures standardized data transmission, while semantic interoperability focuses on accurate data
interpretation. Despite their benefi ts, challenges like high costs and complex technology remain. Overcoming these obstacles and fostering
collaboration is crucial for achieving full interoperability in healthcare systems.
