Healthcare
Standards in the catalog that belong to healthcare — 18 of them. A standard is listed here only when it is specific to this industry; the general-purpose ones it also relies on, like HTTP, OAuth and JSON Schema, deliberately carry no domain.
The same industry, as data models
32 data models define what information exists in healthcare, as opposed to the standards applied in API operations listed below. Same industry, two lenses.
