About MCP FHIR Tools

MCP FHIR Tools is a collection of tools for working with FHIR healthcare data, designed to be used with LLMs through the Model Context Protocol. The repository contains three packages covering general FHIR utilities, Australian FHIR tools and terminology services.

Key features

  1. 01fhir-tools for resource validation and UUID generation
  2. 02au-fhir-tools for Australian healthcare identifier generation
  3. 03tx-tools for terminology code lookup and validation

Use cases

  1. 01Validating FHIR resources and generating UUIDs
  2. 02Generating Australian healthcare identifiers
  3. 03Looking up and validating codes through terminology services

MCP support

The project is intended for use with LLMs via MCP. The README does not specify how the tools are exposed to MCP clients.

Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

mcp.json · Universal config
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fhir-tools": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-fhir-tools"
      ]
    }
  }
}
Run commandnpx -y mcp-fhir-tools

Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
