Canada
Canada has an InfoCentral page that gathers FHIR information which is freely accessible through an account. On that page you can find the link to the FHIR Community that is quite active.
Canada also has a tool called the terminology gateway - a web based solution framework enabling the distribution and sharing of terminology concepts, subsets and concept maps, making them available for web browsing, download or real time query.
Canada Health Infoway has also launched the Canadian FHIR Registry, which is powered by the Simplifier.net platform (a web solution built by Furore).

Does anyone have Reference Sets and/or FHIR Value Sets containing SCT post-coordinated concepts that they are willing to share with the group?
