Google Cloud Healthcare

aid: google-cloud-healthcare
name: Google Cloud Healthcare
description: Google Cloud Healthcare API is a fully managed, HIPAA-eligible service for ingesting, storing, analyzing, and
  integrating healthcare data in the cloud. It provides native support for FHIR R4 (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources),
  HL7v2 clinical event messaging, and DICOM medical imaging standards, along with automated de-identification of protected
  health information (PHI). The API enables healthcare organizations to build interoperable data pipelines, connect clinical
  systems, and power machine learning applications on Google Cloud infrastructure.

  name: Cloud Healthcare FHIR API
  description: The Cloud Healthcare FHIR API provides a fully managed implementation of the HL7 FHIR standard (supporting
    DSTU2, STU3, and R4 versions) for storing and querying clinical and administrative healthcare resources. It supports standard
    FHIR RESTful operations including create, read, update, delete, search, and batch/transaction bundles. The API enables
    bulk export to Cloud Storage and BigQuery, Patient-level consent enforcement, SMART on FHIR authorization, and FHIR Pub/Sub
    notifications for event-driven architectures. Transaction bundles support up to 4,500 entries per bundle.

  name: Cloud Healthcare HL7v2 API
  description: The Cloud Healthcare HL7v2 API provides managed ingestion, storage, and retrieval of HL7 version 2.x messages,
    which are the most widely used standard for exchanging clinical data between hospital information systems. It supports
    message parsing, filtering, and routing via Pub/Sub notifications. The API enables integration with legacy EHR and hospital
    systems by accepting raw HL7v2 messages and making them queryable through a RESTful interface. Messages can be exported
    to Cloud Storage or BigQuery for downstream analytics. Individual messages are limited to 10 MB (base64-encoded data field).

  name: Cloud Healthcare DICOM API
  description: The Cloud Healthcare DICOM API implements the DICOMweb standard for storing, querying, and retrieving medical
    imaging data including X-rays, CT scans, MRIs, and ultrasounds. It supports the WADO-RS (retrieve), STOW-RS (store), and
    QIDO-RS (query) DICOMweb transaction types following the DICOM PS3.18 specification. The API enables secure cloud storage
    of imaging studies with full metadata indexing, bulk import/export to Cloud Storage, and integration with AI/ML pipelines
    for diagnostic imaging workloads. DICOM store transactions are unlimited in size; all other methods are limited to 10
    MB per request.

  name: Cloud Healthcare De-identification API
  description: The Cloud Healthcare De-identification API provides automated redaction and transformation of protected health
    information (PHI) and personally identifiable information (PII) in FHIR resources, DICOM instances, and unstructured text.
    It supports configurable de-identification profiles aligned with HIPAA Safe Harbor and Expert Determination methods, including
    date shifting, text redaction, image pixel anonymization, and cryptographic hashing of identifiers. The API integrates
    with Cloud DLP (Data Loss Prevention) for advanced inspection and transformation pipelines.

- aid: google-cloud-healthcare:healthcare-consent
  name: Cloud Healthcare Consent Management API
  description: The Cloud Healthcare Consent Management API provides fine-grained, patient-centric consent management for healthcare
    data access. It enables organizations to define consent policies, record patient consent artifacts, and enforce access
    decisions at query time. The API supports attribute-based access control via consent attributes, evaluation of consent
    decisions for data access requests, and integration with FHIR stores to restrict FHIR resource access based on active
    patient consents. Patient consent is billed at $0.05 per active consent per month; admin policies at $50.00 per active
    policy per month.
