This international standard document describes the use of a Healthcare Privacy and Security Classification System (HCS) to allow access control systems to enforce privacy and security policies by automatically labelling and segmenting protected healthcare information. The HCS provides a common syntax and semantics standard for interoperable security labels. The HCS uses the related concepts of 'clinical facts' and security labelling for data segmentation.

Main sections:

- Motivations

- Assumptions and pre-conditions

- Models for access control (general)

- HL7 HCS security labels

- HL7 HCS security labels (normative)

- HCS security label field usage notes

- HCS conformance
