LIDDEx represents a grass-roots effort driven from the LIS industry itself to address the long-unmet need of clinical laboratories seeking the ability to exchange, electronically, patient results. In the present parlance of electronic interoperability of identified results data, such exchange can not take place without the a priori expenditure of effort to custom implement a point-to-point interface between the respective originating and receiving institutions. With this model, there is a clear deficit in functionality for exchange of clinical lab data between two "unintroduced" institutions. By use of a formally constrained semantic interoperability model, with anticipated compatibility with caGRID, LIDDEx addresses this deficit with an easily implementable and extensible model, along with model development toolkit, that is readily available for expedited vendor implementation. With the creation of the consortial federation of participating vendors and vendor sites,
