IUA

Internet User Authorization

Updated

IUA is the IHE profile that adds OAuth-based authorization to RESTful health transactions, defining the access-token content a client presents when it calls a FHIR or other HTTP service.

It is the REST counterpart of XUA and is often required alongside MHD, PDQm and other FHIR-based IHE profiles in national exchanges.
